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

[Scott H. <sha...@us...>]

PR #1315 <https://github.com/fink/fink-distributions/pull/1315> submitted.  I hope that the maintainer accepts this.

I Combined package for macOS 14.0, 14.4, 15.0 and added 26.0 as a distribution.  Renamed packages for newer naming scheme by package version rather than macOS version, texlive-x86_64-20240312.info and texlive-texmf-x86_64-20240312.info.

This packages are for X86 systems only for macOS >= 14.0 and remove luajittex and mfluajit modules.  There should be no X86 macOS for >26.0 so this should not need updating in the future.

Passes -m build on macOS 26.7 and Xcode 26.6 for texlive and texlive-nox.
One quibble in validation that I don't know the update for is the infodocs field.  How is that replaced/updated?
`Warning: Field "infodocs" of "splitoff" is deprecated. (texlive-x86_64-20240312.info)`
