Hi Mojca,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

We would greatly appreciate a link to the recent version of TeXlive for Solaris SPARC.

Kind Regards

Adrian

The sparc solaris platform has been kicked out when the builds stopped working and it didn't seem like there was any demand for it.

The builds work again, so if you need the binaries for any recent TL, I can provide a download link.

Hi Adrian,

according to the TL Guide [0], TeXLive 2018 was the last release to
officially ship the sparc-solaris platform. You can access the history
of the TeXLive project via [1]. Nelson Beebe's otherwise incredibly
prolific contribution to the TL pretest campaign [2] at least contains
Debian Linux builds for SPARC CPUs. A first entry point of the TL
project to Solaris is provided by [3].

Best,
Johannes
