I have an OpenSUSE Leap 15.2. operating system.

I have downloaded this texlive.ymp file from this link.

I go to YaST > Software Manager (as suggested here), but then I don't know what to do. Where can I find this texlive.ymp file?

enter image description here

I have also tried to do sudo zypper install texlive-latex as suggested here, but after I insert my password I get (loosely translated):

System management is blocked by the application with pid 14461 (/usr/bin/ruby.ruby2.5).
Please close this app before trying again.

EDIT:

So the solution for me has been:

  1. Go to here and download install-tl-unx.tar.gz
  2. Go to the folder where it has been downloaded and extract the file
  3. cd to the extracted folder
  4. perl install-tl
  5. Enter command: i

If you don't have permission to edit /usr/local/, go there and run sudo mkdir texlive, then chmod +rwx texlive.

    I suggest to use vanilla texlive from https://tug.org/texlive/quickinstall.html instead of the one packaged for your distribution. This will have all packages and be more up-to-date. – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz May 16 '22 at 10:32
  • If I do this I get: `Enter command: i Installing to: /usr/local/texlive/2022 install-tl: mkdir(/usr/local/texlive/) failed for tree /usr/local/texlive/2022: Permission denied at tlpkg/TeXLive/TLUtils.pm line 1142, line 1.` – zest16 May 16 '22 at 10:48
  • Do you have writing rights to `/usr/local/`? Otherwise you might have to create the folder `/usr/local/texlive/` with sudo and then give you writing access to this folder – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz May 16 '22 at 10:49
  • Okay, now I've done `Enter command: i` and it works, but it's expected to take 1h 12min. Is this normal? – zest16 May 16 '22 at 11:03

    Yes. texlive is something like 5 GB (depending on the selection of packages) -- this takes a while – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz May 16 '22 at 11:06
