Hi,
I think "rubber" would be a useful package to have on the clusters, since i=
t makes compiling LaTeX easier, and we could then discourage the use of the=
frequently-wrong Makefiles that I've seen distributed on campus. I'm not s=
ure what the correct metapackage to include it in is, presumably debathena-=
extra-software-nox, as that's where texlive-full is.
rubber is already installed on linerva and athena.dialup.
Sincerely,
-Alex
