Just having started with a new personal “project” I needed a good style for BibTeX. In the past (read ten years ago) I had used dinnat.bst which had good support for citing URLs (at the time that was rather unusual). This has been replaced by natdin.bst, which is not installed on Fedora 12. So here are the quick and dirty steps to install it:

• Download http://mirror.ctan.org/biblio/bibtex/contrib/german/din1505.zip
• Unzip it to /usr/share/texmf/bibtext/bst
• Update TeX database by running texhash as root

The proper way would be to set up a hierarchy under /usr/local/share/texmf/bibtext/bst but I chose to not bother in this case. And ideally there would be an RPM…
