I've applied these (including the Mageia one), thanks.

It occurs to me that adding CentOS would be easy, just treat it like an
RHEL system.  Maybe I'll give that a shot in a bit.

Thanks,

Heh, I sent a patch for it today :-)

There's a problem with CentOS/RHEL: it doesn't have texlive tabulary.
Without that, PDF won't work.

So, CentOS basic support is easy; PDF would require some manual
install (or some advanced way to do the right thing).

Thanks,
Mauro

Sorry, the e-mail was queued, but was actually sent only today.
