Usage (or installation) problem #3

Closed quark67 closed 1 year ago

quark67 commented 1 year ago

The command texfindpkg query array.sty gives:

[tfp] you are using texlive
[tfp] finding dependencies for array.sty
[tfp] please install texlive package tools

kpsewhich array.sty gives:

/usr/local/texlive/2023/texmf-dist/tex/latex/tools/array.sty

So array.sty is installed.

And texfindpkg install array.sty gives:

[tfp] you are using texlive
[tfp] finding dependencies for array.sty
[tfp] installing package tools
Password:🔑

(Yes, the Mac Terminal really displays a key, not with a emoji but with a custom character, when it ask for a password).

I though that texfindpkg don't want to install a package already installed, but with the query action, it's seems that texfindpkg doesn't see that the array package is already installed.

What do you name "package tools" when you say "[tfp] installing package tools"?

If this can help: there is only the file texfindpkg.lua in the scripts folder (complete path: /usr/local/texlive/2023/texmf-dist/scripts/texfindpkg/texfindpkg.lua).

When I search for all files which contains the name "texfindpkg" on my computer, I obtain this result:

image

So there is a file named texfindpkg.json.gz (yes, .gz) in: /usr/local/texlive/2023/texmf-dist/tex/latex/texfindpkg/texfindpkg.json.gz (don't know if this file is expected in /tex/latex/texfindpkg rather than in /scripts/texfindpkg, as explained in issue https://github.com/lvjr/texfindpkg/issues/2, but definitively, the .gz seems to be an error).

I hope this can help you to debug your new package or the installation of your new package.

lvjr commented 1 year ago

Actually I suggested Karl Berry in a mail to put both files texfindpkg.json.gz and texfindpkg.lua in scripts folder, but it turned out that he didn't fully agree with me. Anyway, it is a minor problem so we could just ignore it for now.

lvjr commented 1 year ago

At this time, texfindpkg doesn't know whether or not a package is already installed. But at least the wording could be improved.

quark67 commented 1 year ago

What are the expected output of texfindpkg query array.sty and texfindpkg install array.sty when array.sty are already installed?

lvjr commented 1 year ago

In fact, array.sty is included in a TeX Live package named tools. So it may confuse you. That is why I said I need to change the wording in the output. Maybe adding a colon:

[tfp] please install package: tools
[tfp] installing package: tools

As was commented above, texfindpkg is not able to know whether array.sty is already installed at present.

quark67 commented 1 year ago

But why does you package ask me installing the "tool" package? Isn't it installed with TeX Live?

If I ask:

% texfindpkg query esvect.sty
[tfp] you are using texlive
[tfp] finding dependencies for esvect.sty
[tfp] please install texlive package esvect

But esvect.sty is installed:

% kpsewhich esvect.sty
/usr/local/texlive/2023/texmf-dist/tex/latex/esvect/esvect.sty

And it is not included in a package with another name.

And for tcolorbox, the package ask me to install a lot of package already installed:

Can you explain in a documentation what is the purpose of your package? At least, add a disclaimer in the package documentation saying that the package cannot say if a package is already installed.

lvjr commented 1 year ago

I think the title of this package is clear enough: "Install TeX packages and their dependencies". With query action, it is just "Query TeX packages and their dependencies".

I am fixing this problem. With the latest code (not yet pushed to the repository) you get the following output:
