Notes

1. Configure 64-bit install with options: [the-who] tetex-src-3.0% ./configure --prefix=/util/teTeX-3.0 --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib64 --disable-multiplatform
2. Prefer to install new packages into:

   /util/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/generic
   

3. Build fonts for the entire system, not just the current user:

   ~% sudo /util/teTeX/bin/updmap-sys
   

4. Set default paper size for the entire system:

   ~% sudo texconfig-sys pdftex paper letter
   

5. After adding new packages, style files, fonts, etc., run texhash:

   [the-who] ~% sudo /util/teTeX/bin/texhash
   Password:
   texhash: Updating /util/teTeX-3.0/share/texmf/ls-R...
   texhash: Updating /util/teTeX-3.0/share/texmf-var/ls-R...
   texhash: Done.
