#TEX LIVE UTILITY MAC MAC OS X#

If you are stuck using Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.7 (e.g, you are using a PowerPC system), you can use TeX Live Utility 1.03 or earlier. Apple’s compiler removed support for 10.6.8, which is a shame since it was the last good version of OS X. If you are stuck using Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8, you can use TeX Live Utility 1.36 or earlier. Since 10.7 and 10.8 kind of sucked, this was no great loss. Support for those was dropped two weeks after 1.41 was released, due to another Xcode version jump. The last version to support Mac OS X 10.7 and 10.8 was TeX Live Utility 1.41. Current versions of TeX Live Utility require TeX Live 2009 or later, due to changes in the tlmgr tool itself. TeX Live Utility 0.74 and earlier will work with TeX Live 20.

#TEX LIVE UTILITY MAC INSTALL#

TeX Live installed via MacTeX or the standard Unix install.

TeX Live Utility also provides a native OS X user interface, and does not require installation of Perl/Tk (which can be complicated). Why use this program when you can use the command line tlmgr or its built-in Perl/Tk GUI? TeX Live Utility performs TeX Live infrastructure updates using the Disaster Recovery script, which avoids problems with tlmgr removing itself while updating. See Getting Started for screenshots and more specific details.

TeX Live Utility aims to provide a native Mac OS X interface for the most commonly used functions of the TeX Live Manager command-line tool. TeX Live Utility is a Mac OS X graphical interface for TeX Live Manager, which is a tool provided with TeX Live 2008 and later, for updating, installing, and otherwise managing TeX Live. I thought what I was seeing was normal.This project is maintained by amaxwell TeX Live Utility What Is This? Everything to do with MacTeX 'just works'. I am now on 4.58 (My excuse for TeXShop foot-dragging is I am heavily engaged with Aquamacs Emacs for other development, so AucTex is my major mode for LaTeX)

That would have been when I was out there to help with the final publication. My version in Applications/TeX is currently 4.44 which I updated to on 2. I don't use TexShop very much, but I did help my sister in Australia write a book with it.

#TEX LIVE UTILITY MAC UPDATE#

'critical infrastrucuture update required' appeared to trigger a new version download, but it must have been freshening up tlmgr for which I now understand it acts as a gui front end.Īnyhow I did 'check for updates' and it did (via a 'crash' - but it worked) I thought was updating itself as I used it. Maybe it was much earlier than 2020, although Finder's get info showed its date as 20 April 2020 I vaguely remember there were extra instructions for installing extras in Applications. My Tex Live Utility set up may well be older than 2020. Brand new users had to download them separately. However, there is no way a notarized installer could 'sneak unnotarized applications on each user's Mac.' TeX Live Utility and LaTeXiT were usually there after installation because they remained from a previous installation. TeXShop has been signed with a hardened runtime and notarized from the moment Apple required that, so TeXShop was indeed installed by MacTeX 2020. > However, the details aren't quite correct. > I appreciate this explanation, which is clearly from someone with a 'Macintosh persuasion'.
