I have to update TexLive in order to use, at least, the 2017 version and I don't need the TexLive full version. The problem is that I'm using Debian 9.4 and the latest version available in the debian repository is TexLive-2016.
Is there a way to do that?

later. See for example tex.stackexchange.com/q/352138/35864. It all depends on how minimal you want to be.
