Another Gentoo guide is available for this task, although it was written for TeX Live 2008 (three years out of date). I’ll take a look through, and hopefully it will not require much (any) modification.
The install was straight-forward enough
<code># emerge texlive</code>
But at the end I end up with the following error:
<code>
* Cannot run texmf-update for some reason.
* Your texmf tree might be inconsistent with your configuration
* Please try to figure what has happened
</code>
I keep coming to this forum posting, so it might be worth a try. First I need to figure out what
<code>equery b texmf-update</code>
is about.
Apparently it will tell me what package to reinstall before reinstalling the complaining packages.
And so now, I guess, I will.
