Re: autoreconf: problem while executing


Hi Ken and Marco,

I suggest you to remove most of  not necessary programs.

In particular, he should not install more texlive-collection-* packages
than he thinks he will need.  Even without fork problems,
zp_texlive_finish.dash takes a long time to run if all texlive
collections are installed.

In addition, he should run 'rebase-trigger full' and stop all Cygwin
processes (including services) before re-running setup-x86.exe, so that
the autorebase postinstall script will do a full rebase.

As a blind person using a screen reader its a little bit difficult to
use the package list in the setup.
can i remove packages using the command line and use wildcards?
i looked at the setup faq but haven't found anything if i could for
example tell the setup to remove all packages that have
texlive-collection in their name.

maybe it would also be a good idea to use a normal list box with
checkboxes to uncheck or check the packages in the future to make it
more accessible.


or use a normal listbox and make the list items toggleable like
selecting the all item or admin or devel category in the list box and
hit space to cycle the list item through all the possibilities (default,
install, reinstall, uninstall, etc).

because at the moment you can't focus the list with a keyboard  and
other screen reader function.

greetings,
simon
