[Nix-dev] pgf (was: SVN commit: nix - r33067 - in nixpkgs/trunk/pkgs: tools/typesetting/tex/pgfplots top-level)

[Sander van der Burg - EWI]

I don't know very much about pgf either, but apparently it's a separate package which is not included with the regular pgf distribution. I use this package in conjunction with the pkgs.texFunctions.runLaTeX nix function to automatically compile my documents by using a nix expression.

Hi Sander,

 > Added pgfplots package

I don't know much about PGF, but I noticed that there are plenty of
packages in all-packages.nix that seem to be related to PGF. There is
'pgf1', 'pgf2', 'texLivePGF', and now 'pgfplots'. Do you (or anyone
else) know how these packages relate to each other? What is the
difference between them? And, last but not least, how do I install them
if I want to experiment with PGF? Would it be possible to add that stuff
to 'texLiveFull'?

Take care,
Peter
