[tex-live] A Simple Recommendation

[Paul Vojta]

Dear Lahcene ROUANI,

Did you install TeXLive directly from TeXLive (e.g., from the TL DVD or
over the web), or did you install the texlive-full Ubuntu package?

It would have been better to do the latter, since that is set up specifically
for Ubuntu.

Sincerely,


Paul Vojta
