From 78507894577ac03587bc7786254f2a54268fd401 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adam Vandenberg Date: Thu, 17 Jun 2010 21:33:14 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Remove buggy, unsupported TeX-live brew, and suggest MacTex. The TeX-live 2008 formula was out of date (there's a 2009), buggy, and doesn't build 64-bit. The MacTeX package works and is supported, with a 2010 version in the works. Let's recommend that instead.
