comment Problem with updmap
I'll look into just installing via tlmgr. Out of curiosity... where does the @INC path get defined? Perhaps I can at least try and track down a config that might be out of date and point it to the right place?

comment Problem with updmap
I might be muddying waters since Arch does this differently than the TL default or other distros... I posted on Arch forums as well and will post the answer here if I get it. My apologies if this is a source of confusion.

comment Problem with updmap
I don't have a /usr/local/texlive directory... Should I? Arch Linux provides the Arch Build System so you can build from source. Here's the default build script for texlive-core (how the binary installs from the repo by default. No references to /usr/local that I see.

comment Problem with updmap
Both updmap and updmap-sys are in /usr/bin/. (Actually just noted that the error above says that: failed... at /usr/bin/updmap line 18.)

comment Confused about TikZ \draw[rotate=angle]
I feel like an idiot. Having found rotate around in the manual... it's exactly what I needed. Rotate around sounded intuitively like what was happening, whereas rotate sounded like it should just rotate in place. Thanks.

comment TeX memory size error when using TikZ foreach children in trees
@Ulrike Fischer: I got pdflatex: unrecognized option '--extra-mem-top=10000000'. Any suggestions?

comment TeX memory size error when using TikZ foreach children in trees
@Caramdir: whoops. I actually didn't see that suggestion to increase it via command-line. In terms of not using lualatex, I just have no experience with it and typically export via org-mode, so using the default pdflatex exporter is great as I don't have to make an exception for just one file. I'll try the other suggestion next time I boot into linux (in OS X at the time and don't use latex on it). Thanks for the comment.

comment Extra line of vertical separator using itemize in tabular
Huh. That does, indeed, work. Any idea why 1) itemize is inserting a "ghost line" after the end of the list or 2) why this works to fix it? Is it just inserting negative space afterward?

Wow -- yes, I feel quite silly :) I completely missed "of contents"!

That's odd... not sure what to say about that. See my answer for one more idea?
