Welcome TexLive
TeTeX had a long run with Slackware, but it's time to say good bye as the package is severly outdated. I once got a request to edit a LaTeX document from one of my colleague and i can't build the document just because TeTeX and it suddenly worked when i switched to texlive (plus texlive-extra) from SBo. Since texlive is now part of Slackware, i just need to add texlive-extra from SBo for my need :)
I wonder if texlive-extra can be added as well. That will be a great advantage for those using latex as it adds more functionality to the base texlive package, but it comes with a huge size: 263 MB. More over, since Pat has to provide the sources and the SlackBuild itself, it would consume more space on the DVD when it's released. I'm not really sure whether a single DVD can hold up all those sources if texlive-extra is added.
The other changes are only libpng and cups-filter upgrade.
