teTeX and TeXLive

Hello,

 As you already noticed, TeXLive ports have been imported and one can
 choose teTeX or TeXLive while the default value for pre-compiled
 packages is still teTeX.

 If you want to use TeXLive, please try to use the following knob:

 TEX_DEFAULT= texlive

 To do this, almost all of ports which use TeX will depend on TeXLive.
 Although some ports which install a new TeX macro package may not
 work because of incompatibility such as difference of directory
 structure between the two, ones which use TeX for typesetting should
 work fine.  Ones to install macro packages which were non-standard in
 teTeX but are included in TeXLive will be fixed or removed.

 Please test TeXLive and send your failure report to me.  Once it is
 confirmed that TEX_DEFAULT=texlive works, I will switch the default
 value from tetex to texlive at some point.
