This field used to make sense in our pre-git days, but
the Signed-Off-By: line serves the same purpose (and
even more) now, so APPROVED has been rejected. ;-)

Thanks to Karl Berry and the other TeXLive contributors for their
willingness to actively maintain a -stable branch of TeXLive with
only critical patches - this makes things much easier for distro
packagers and such.
This commit also includes some miscellaneous script fixes wrt
configure flags; thanks to Martin Ivanov for the tips.
Thanks also to Daniil Bratashov for making me aware of the build
problems that were fixed by the branch2011 patches (and to be
fair, he also attached split versions of those patches).
Finally, thanks also to Eduardo Sánchez for reporting the build
problems and testing the patches before I had a chance to do so.
Without feedback like this from our users, I'd be up a creek :)

I'm sure glad that the poppler library was split out of xpdf
so we don't have to alter/recompile everything after a change
to the pdf libraries. Oh wait...

Hi,
Installed from source texlive-20100722. Thanks!
Writing a paper to Science and downloaded the style-files from
http://www.sciencemag.org/site/feature/contribinfo/prep/TeX_help/index.xhtml
Followed this wiki on how to install extra packages under texmf-local
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Packages/Installing_Extra_Packages
Running texhash or mktexlsr. It did not find all directories in
/usr/share/texmf*
Edited TEXMFLOCAL = $SELFAUTOPARENT/../texmf-local on line 64 in
/usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf
to TEXMFLOCAL =$SELFAUTOPARENT/texmf-local
Now root@slack:~# mktexlsr
mktexlsr: Updating /usr/share/texmf/ls-R...
mktexlsr: Updating /usr/share/texmf-config/ls-R...
mktexlsr: Updating /usr/share/texmf-dist/ls-R...
mktexlsr: Updating /usr/share/texmf-local/ls-R...
mktexlsr: Updating /usr/share/texmf-var/ls-R...
mktexlsr: Done.
finds texmv-local/ls-R and the installed sty files can be used in all
directories.
Don't know if this is a 'bug' but it might be possible to change in
the default path generation to the texmf tree.
Of course one can put all extra style files in a ~/texmf but to use
texmf-local make it neat and clean.

These will (ideally, assuming we remember when generating tarballs)
still be mode 0755 inside the tarballs, but we would prefer to have
them mode 0644 on the server. It's probably not really important,
but just call us OCD like that. ;-)
