Yes. Except that: - nobody built the latest binaries yet (I can do it tomorrow if you need armhf; I have my pie in the office – and switched off) - there are some problems with armel vs. armhf: both work, but I don't know how to automatically properly distinguish between the two flavours of arm; I believe that at the moment we can only make sure that one of them works automatically; with the other one some additional hacks (flags) are needed You can in principle install the minimals right away, but you then need to build the latest version of luatex for proper function of MKIV.

Don't waste your time. It is not an urgent request. I discovered that a Pi today is more powerful than the notebook I used in 2000. So it should fit all the needs of a writer. ;-) So the binaries, that are installed by first-setup.sh, are prebuilt? juh
