Thank you, I think I got everything installed.

While building I get the following messages, which don’t seem good:

Looking for incorrect headers in 1670 dependency files…
<etc>

Also, texconfig gives the following message:

fmtutil [ERROR]: Either -sys or -user mode is required.
fmtutil [ERROR]: In nearly all cases you should use fmtutil -sys.
fmtutil [ERROR]: For special cases see http://tug.org/texlive/scripts-sys-user.html

But texlive-2017 is enough of an upgrade over texlive-2014 to build the documents I needed.
