Hi Norbert
this amply satisfies my query ;-)
I discover the --global
option to the "search" action, will the
extended "info" action also accept it ?
the CTAN pages have a "see also" bit of
information on package pages, the extended
"info" would be a strong competitor for
people wishing to identify the well-established
packages in an area they previously don't
know
ah, but --global does not work like I thought.
I tried with a minimal install (from the rsynced
to my disk tlpretest mirror) and here is what
I get:
~$ tlmgr search tabularx
carlisle - David Carlisle's small packages.
tools - The LaTeX standard tools bundle.
~$ tlmgr search tabularx --global
tlmgr: package repository /Users/---/Downloads/TEMP
carlisle - David Carlisle's small packages.
tools - The LaTeX standard tools bundle.
no, I understand, it is this problem with the
repository being wrong when doing such an install
(if that matters I did this with
<O> options:
[ ] use letter size instead of A4 by default
[X] allow execution of restricted list of programs via \write18
[ ] create all format files
[ ] install macro/font doc tree
[ ] install macro/font source tree
[ ] create symlinks to standard directories
[ ] after install, use tlnet on CTAN for package updates
)
~$ tlmgr option repository
Default package repository (repository): .
~$ tlmgr option repository /Users/---/Downloads/tlpretest
tlmgr: setting default package repository to /Users/---/Downloads/tlpretest
~$ tlmgr search tabularx --global
tlmgr: package repository /Users/---/Downloads/tlpretest
carlisle - David Carlisle's small packages.
linegoal - A "dimen" that returns the space left on the line.
ltablex - Table package extensions.
numprint - Print numbers with separators and exponent if necessary.
tabu - Flexible LaTeX tabulars.
tabulary - Tabular with variable width columns balanced.
tools - The LaTeX standard tools bundle.
widetable - An environment for typesetting tables of specified width
Bye,
