latex on ubuntu
Development Environment
sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base texlive-latex-extra xzdec
Package Management
Init tlmgr with command:
tlmgr init-usertree
Then you can install packages by:
tlmgr install <name>
But sometimes you could not find a package by this command, you need to search here to see the container.
Yet, the recommend way is to install full package in apt-get.
