Okay, this should be set with the new title now.

FWIW the TeX packages I install on Fedora are:
texlive texlive-isodate texlive-relsize texlive-ulem texlive-fixme texlive-extract

Would you like me to add a Fedora section? If so, let me know what you'd like the title to be and what command you use to install those packages, and I'll add another section to the patch.

@AaronBallman Yes, please add Fedora info as well

Am I correct in understanding this would be:

sudo yum install <packages>

?

should be

I've updated the patch for Fedora as well.

No, yum is deprecated, dnf install blah blah but I don't think sudo is configured by default, so maybe use:

(as root) dnf install texlive texlive-isodate texlive-relsize texlive-ulem texlive-fixme texlive-extract

One more try, this time with dnf instead of yum.

Hrm, sorry to be a pain, now I look at it, it would probably be better to put the (as root) after "Fedora" not before the dnf command. Otherwise looks good to me. And I don't see any reason we can't merge this now, since it doesn't affect the actual draft.

I wasn't too keen on putting (as root) after Fedora, but I didn't mind putting it in the instructions. How does this look to you?

I wouldn't even necessarily say "as root" at all -- people should know how to use their system; if they're already in the business of installing packages, they probably know how to do it right.

I can certainly remove it, but we do show sudo in the other two examples, and it seems somewhat strange to leave it off for Fedora. As @jwakely pointed out, sudo is not configured by default, but perhaps we could still use it for this case as well (and assume people know how to configure sudo or drop into su manually)?

Yes, that's true, and we can keep it in, I don't mind. It was just an idea.

Why not do sudo here too?

Added sudo and removed the (as root).

No, please don't add sudo to the Fedora instructions, because that doesn't work on Fedora. Fedora != Ubuntu. It's not set up so you can just bork your system by adding sudo (https://xkcd.com/149/)

By default any Ubuntu user can just add sudo to any command to run as root, and I assume that's true for OS X too. It's not true for Fedora.

As @jwakely pointed out, sudo is not configured by default, but perhaps we could still use it for this case as well (and assume people know how to configure sudo or drop into su manually)?

Instead of assuming they know how to modify their sudoers config, let's just not include sudo in the command, so if they have configured sudo to let it work, they will know to add sudo, and if not they'll know to use su.

I'm fine with just dropping the "(as root)" part and assuming Fedora users building the standard know how to install packages, but a command that doesn't work is not helpful. I'd rather not mention Fedora at all than have a command that won't work.

Updated to remove the sudo command for Fedora.
