I can provide stix-math-fonts it if you want. Note, however, that STIX was bumped from 1.1.0 to 2.0.2, and upstream completely redid its font structure between STIX 1 and STIX 2. Just providing the old package name won’t magically undo upstream changes (the package ships with fontconfig aliasing rules to correctly transition apps from STIX 1 to STIX 2, but some TEX engines are notorious for not using fontconfig). STIX was, with Droid, one of the complex fonts that illustrated the limits of our previous packaging approach and made me start the guidelines change 2 years ago. I should work smoother now (I understand that does not help you much right now:( ). Also, if someone needs it, I can create a compat STIX1 package. It‘s way easier using new guidelines. It will shuffle things a bit compared to F31 STIX, but it will keep the same upstream font files. However, upstream did not change things on a whim. They refactored STIX in 2018 to fix numerous technical problems. A STIX 1 compat package would reintroduce those problems in Fedora. Thanks for the clarifications. I think the maintainers of sagemath and texlive-stix are probably the people who know what their packages need. I've added the primary maintainers of both sagemath and texlive to CC so they're aware of the changes. (In case that was not clear: STIX is definitely *not* a candidate for a F31 backport) This is blocking clean upgrades to F32 currently, so it would be nice to sort this out before F32 release. Problem 8: package texlive-collection-fontsextra-9:svn51763-18.fc32.noarch requires texlive-stix, but none of the providers can be installed - problem with installed package texlive-collection-fontsextra-9:svn51763-11.fc31.noarch - package texlive-stix-9:svn47652-18.fc32.noarch requires stix-math-fonts, but none of the providers can be installed - texlive-stix-9:svn47652-11.fc31.noarch does not belong to a distupgrade repository - texlive-collection-fontsextra-9:svn51763-11.fc31.noarch does not belong to a distupgrade repository - stix-math-fonts-1.1.0-15.fc31.noarch does not belong to a distupgrade repository Problem 9: problem with installed package texlive-stix-9:svn47652-11.fc31.noarch - package texlive-stix-9:svn47652-11.fc31.noarch requires stix-math-fonts, but none of the providers can be installed - package texlive-stix-9:svn47652-18.fc32.noarch requires stix-math-fonts, but none of the providers can be installed - package stix-math-fonts-1.1.0-15.fc31.noarch requires stix-fonts = 1.1.0-15.fc31, but none of the providers can be installed - stix-fonts-1.1.0-15.fc31.noarch does not belong to a distupgrade repository Builds are going to fix this now. BTW F33 will probably ship with another STIX update, since upstream is announcing it for Q1 2020 Fix for this is blocking on a bug in koji: https://pagure.io/releng/issue/9226 FEDORA-2020-33866acc9a has been submitted as an update to Fedora 32. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2020-33866acc9a @spot: thanks for updating texlive! We’re all grateful you maintain this monster. texlive-2019-19.fc32 has been pushed to the Fedora 32 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2020-33866acc9a texlive-2019-19.fc32 has been pushed to the Fedora 32 stable repository.
