Comment(by john_owens@…):
Maybe Ryan changed his mind between January and December. :)
Oh Oracle of Ryan, I know that consistency is the hobgoblin of little
minds, but what are you thinking today about the right way to go here?
Look, texlive is a nasty nasty port to write. I spent several weeks trying
to help Edd debug 2008 last fall and we didn't get it working even then.
It wasn't available until months after MacTeX was, and the MacTeX people
are really good at what they do. And the selfupdate feature is really
cool. Unless we have someone who really wants to take the texlive port
over and make sure it's a rock and comes out soon after texlive is
released, I think the right thing to do is to let macports users leverage
MacTeX if possible.
