The general +consensus from the TeXLive users mailing list is that distributions should +not be shipping tlpkg, and while I certainly agree with that, I elected to +ship it anyway on the off chance that some users find it desirable. + +That being said, the *proper* way to upgrade TeXLive (or any part of it) is +through your distribution's package manager, which in this case would mean +that you wait for a new/updated build script from SlackBuilds.org. If you +elect to try tlmgr(1) and it doesn't work at all, or worse, it messes up +part of your TeXLive installation, you have only yourself to blame. + +--rworkman :-) + |
