Thanks for fixing clisp. In terms of texlive, I can build it now, but it is not working. In fact, the .footprint file does not even have /usr/bin/latex in it. Is that correct? -Thanks again, Ian On Fri, Nov 16, 2012 at 8:13 AM, Danny Rawlins <d.rawlins@datafast.net.au> wrote:

Hi, all.

I am a long-time CRUX user; thank you all for your efforts in contributing to a great distribution.

I recently upgraded to 2.8 on my x86_64 via binaries from the CD. I am trying to build texlive and its dependencies, but I am failing on clisp. My system is otherwise totally healthy. Here is the pertinent end of the build log

I can't build clisp by hand from the source, either. Nor can I build texlive with clisp disabled.

Any thoughts?

I am not above using a 64-bit clisp binary, if anybody can point me to one ... my rpm2targz is failing on the other packages I have found...

Hi I have fixed clisp but there is some issues with texlive still. See the mailing list a in the past two weeks about texlive.

Any additional details on solving the problems with texlive is appreciated.
