Hello,

when grafting texlive-texmf on my Novena, the build times out after an hour,
even when I add "--timeout=70000". This is even more annoying since the
package cannot be substituted any more.

Same here.  Grafting big packages is still rather slow as you write, but
we shouldn’t have anything as big as the old monolithic texlive package
(4 GiB!).

I think so.  Done!
