textproc/rubber 1.6.7p0 OpenBSD

Rubber is a building system for LaTeX documents. It is based on a routine that runs just as many compilations as necessary and runs companion programs like BibTeX and Makeindex when needed.

The module system provides a great flexibility that virtually allows support for any package with no user intervention, as well as pre- and post-processing of the document.

A good number of standard packages are supported, including graphics/ graphicx with automatic conversion between various graphics formats and Metapost compilation.

The associated tool "rubber-info" extracts information, such as dependency relations or post-compilation diagnostics.
