This article summarizes how to install the Kile LaTeX editor with TeXLive instead of TeTeX (which is no longer maintained). For additional information about how to install TeXLive on Arch Linux, visit the TeXLive article.
Contents
Step 1: Install TeXLive
The best way to start is installing the texlive-most package.
# pacman -S texlive-most
Make sure you have enabled the community archives (in /etc/pacman.conf). If you encounter errors during the installation complaining that commands could not be found, try running:
$ export PATH=$PATH:/opt/texlive/bin
before installing.
Step 2: Install Okular
Simply type:
# pacman -S kdegraphics-okular
Note that okular can read .pdf as well as .dvi so there should not be the need for any other tools.
Step 3: Install Kile
Finally you have to install Kile.
# pacman -S kile
Start Kile from your menu and check whether all dependencies are solved using "Settings > Systemcheck". Kile will ask you for the Acrobat Reader (the pacman package is called acroread), but that is optional.
Note that if you installed Kile before installing the required packages (like kdvi), you can still install them and have a fully working Kile install.
Enjoy Kile and TeXLive.
Troubleshooting
pdfTeX warnings
If you get warnings such as:
pdfTeX warning: pdflatex [...] fontmap entry for [...] already exists, duplicates ignored
try to remove the map files pcr8y.map, phv8y.map, ptm8y.map from the updmap.cfg and finally run updmap.
