problem with tex4ht 20200327

[Lars Madsen]

Why the need to build it? Just install it from tug.org/texlive

The Linux dists tend to provide their own modified version. I genereally tend to recommend installing it from tug.org instead as it comes with a functioning tlmgr

unfortunatly tlmgr is not supported on fedora. I need to build the TL20 release.

Where can i get the "the original TL20 release"?
Ist texlive-20200327-source.tar.xz the original TL20 release?
