How can i install only 1 tex font.

i only want 1 tex font (dejavu sans), not 1gb worth of fonts from texlive-fontsextra

Is this possible to do in Arch?

Re: How can i install only 1 tex font.

Pacman#Skip_files_from_being_installed_to_system
Filtering out all the files provided texlive-fontsextra without catching files from other texlive packages you have installed and allowing dejavu may need some thought.
Another method would involve creating a custom texlive-fontsextra package with only dejavu.  That would still require downloading 500M of fonts.

Re: How can i install only 1 tex font.

Install texlive-installer from the AUR (instead of extra/texlive-*) and use tlmgr to install what you need.

Re: How can i install only 1 tex font.

Ah, much much simpler would be simply to not install textlive-fontsextra.  I do all my document creation in latex, and have not had that package installed in ages.  DejaVu is a system font - use xelatex and don't bother with latex fonts.
