Re: [Fink-users] texlive-nox-base-20240312-2 build failure

Hisashi,

Yes, I have a whole bunch of stuff in local that I need to clean up and submit.  I have my own personal git branches to change individual packages.  I am testing my changes to texlive and texlive-mf and will submit them soon.  Tomoaki is the maintainer and will try to get his comments as well.
