so what would one have to do, to make it workable in a multi architecture
environment. Is it possible to install it without having to install a lot
of stuff at the end user, i.e. possible to install it such that the only
thing the user has to do is to mount TL via Samba.
Everything else seemed to work fine, I was just missing a DVI-previewer.
But, then again, it is not that important. I don't think our LaTeX
installation will be used that much, mounted via Samba. I was just
woundering.
