>Description:
LaTeX in FreeBSD ports is so horribly outdated, that it's even shame to say that we have LaTeX on FreeBSD. On other hand there is FreeBSD TeXLive project which is live and kicking.

http://code.google.com/p/freebsd-texlive/

Perhaps it's time to move forward and start using TeXLive by Romain Tartière?

Yes, there is problem with port versioning... but it's not like it can't be fixed.

So what are we waiting for?
