+- TeX Live packages are also available under `texlive.pkgs` as derivations with outputs `out`, `tex`, `texdoc`, `texsource`, `tlpkg`, `man`, `info`. They cannot be installed outside of `texlive.combine` but are available for other uses. To repackage a font, for instance, use

 ## Custom packages {#sec-language-texlive-custom-packages}
 
 You may find that you need to use an external TeX package. A derivation for such package has to provide the contents of the "texmf" directory in its output and provide the appropriate `tlType` attribute (one of `"run"`, `"bin"`, `"doc"`, `"source"`). Dependencies on other TeX packages can be listed in the attribute `tlDeps`.
