Here are not well untested texlive and context packages backported to Ubuntu 7.04: deb http://web.mit.edu/sanjoy/texlive-backports/ feisty/ deb-src http://web.mit.edu/sanjoy/texlive-backports/ feisty/ I use these packages on my laptop with no problems so far (half a day of testing), but let me know if you find anything broken. They are based on the version in Ubuntu 7.10 (gutsy), and the context-nonfree and context-doc-nonfree packages are directly from Norbert's repository. Quickstart: Put the above two lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list (replacing the lines for Norbert's repo) then hopefully just these two commands: apt-get update apt-get install context By 'not well tested', I mean that I learnt only yesterday how to turn rebuilt packages into a public repository, so something will go wrong. But I can recompile my textbook after installing those packages, so metapost and pdftex and context are working reasonably well. -Sanjoy
