eitl – Easy install of TeX Live

The script allows the easy install of a current TeX Live version over the net. It is tested with the current Linux versions of OpenSUSE and Ubuntu. The script:

• looks for a fast server
• downloads the install script
• deletes an existing TeX Live version from Ubuntu (deb) or openSUSE (rpm)
• extracts and runs the install script
• installs a complete up-to-date TeX Live from tug.org
• installs the non free fonts from tug.org which are not part of TeX Live, like arial, Luxi mono, etc.
• installs the GUIs TeXmaker and TeXworks
• creates files zzz-texlive.sh/csh for /etc/profile.d/

If no directory is specified, TeX Live will be installed in the home directory ~/texlive. For another directory, run the script with the directory name; e.g.:

./eitl.sh /usr/local/texlive

for some actions the script needs to be root. In such cases it asks for the root password.
