I would like to add two new subsections to the Pkgsrc Guide that describe two common types of packages for which there are many examples in pkgsrc: R packages and TeXlive packages. I envision these going in section 12.1 "Common types of packages" following the perl and python descriptions. The attached file is a patch that does that. It would be really helpful to get some feedback on the marked up text for two reasons: (i) I never use docbook so there may be technical improvements to the markup that are possible, and (ii) I would like confirmation of the content. Especially for the TeXlive part, it would be really helpful for someone to make a package based upon what I have written to see if there are any confusing parts, omissions, or possible improvements. I look forward to your input. Thanks a lot. Cheers, Brook
