My college just blocked Ubuntu repositories. So is there any way to install texlive package from something like zip?



I need to run this command,



sudo apt-get install texlive texlive-pdf texlive-latex-extra texlive-generic-extra texlive-generic-recommended


So can anyone provide an alternate way to do the same.

You need to select different Ubuntu mirror that is not blacklisted in your college.



Change /etc/apt/sources.list like here:



deb http://mirror.fcaglp.unlp.edu.ar/ubuntu/ saucy main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirror.fcaglp.unlp.edu.ar/ubuntu/ saucy-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirror.fcaglp.unlp.edu.ar/ubuntu/ saucy-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirror.fcaglp.unlp.edu.ar/ubuntu/ saucy-backports main restricted universe multiverse


Here is the list with plenty of Ubuntu mirrors. Choose what is best for you.
