It typically won't work to use separately installed packages together.
|
||
|
|
Instead, you can build a custom set of packages like this:
|
||
|
|
<programlisting>
|
||
|
|
texlive.combine {
|
||
|
|
inherit (texlive) scheme-small collection-langkorean algorithms cm-super;
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
</programlisting>
|
||
|
|
There are all the schemes, collections and a few thousand packages, as defined upstream (perhaps with tiny differences).
|
||
|
|
</para></listitem>
|
||
|
|
<listitem><para>
|
||
|
|
By default you only get executables and files needed during runtime, and a little documentation for the core packages. To change that, you need to add <varname>pkgFilter</varname> function to <varname>combine</varname>.
|
||
|
|
<programlisting>
|
||
|
|
texlive.combine {
|
||
|
|
# inherit (texlive) whatever-you-want;
|
||
|
|
pkgFilter = pkg:
|
||
|
|
pkg.tlType == "run" || pkg.tlType == "bin" || pkg.pname == "cm-super";
|
||
|
|
# elem tlType [ "run" "bin" "doc" "source" ]
|
||
|
|
# there are also other attributes: version, name
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
</programlisting>
|
||
|
|
</para></listitem>
|
||
|
|
<listitem><para>
|
||
|
|
You can list packages e.g. by <command>nix-repl</command>.
|
||
|
|
<programlisting>
|
||
|
|
$ nix-repl
|
||
|
|
nix-repl> texlive.collection-<TAB>
|
||
|
|
</programlisting>
|
||
|
|
</para></listitem>
