How can I install LaTex on VMWare image?

<< < (2/2)

bascule:
Right, looking at the Wiki page again, everything except latex-ucs is already installed in the image.

Plus I've screwed up my image by doing the apt-get update (MMap out of memory error, and adding more virtual memory in VMWare didn't seem to fix it), so I'm going to re-extract the image and try it all over again...

EDIT: Yay, success! I just installed latex-ucs (which it did uncomplainingly) and now everything seems to be working OK.

Thanks for all your help, especially this:

I would never have guessed that that was a libice version, I assumed it was an entirely different application/package  ::)

This is indeed on my list for things to do during DevConEuro and currently takes priority over my other planned projects.  Hopefully I will be sober enough to get it done.   ;)

If there is anything that you think should be added to the image, please put it down on the list that is at the bottom of http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/VMwareDevelopmentPlatform and I will see about adding it.
