Once I use --extras=t-something the module stays there even if I don't add the --keep flag. Does it behave differently on your machine?
I get the same behaviour as you. I think that I had installed some modules by hand, and those got wiped out, and it took me ages to figure out what happened. I will correct the wiki.
One needs to check what happens in case that one runs ./first-setup.sh --extras=t-something ./first-setup.sh --extras=t-somethingelse I would not be surprised if the first module was deleted (this needs to be checked and fixed). But in general I would suggest: a) putting --extras=whatever to the last line of first-setup.sh b) putting anything that's not in distribution to texmf-local
BTW, do you know why the new t-bib cannot be installed by first-setup?
Most probably because there has never been a need for that until recently. I can add it to the repository, but I'm sceptic if it will work properly. rsync is somehow unpredictable if one provides two files with the same name. I would not be surprised if it took one file from context and the other file from the extra module. Feel free to test - bib is in repository now. Mojca
