Doc Text:
.The `translator.sty` LaTeX style document has been added Previously, the `translator.sty` LaTeX style document, which is necessary for certain tools that depend on `texlive-beamer`, was missing. As a consequence, these tools failed with a `LaTeX Error: File `translator.sty' not found.` error. This update adds the missing `texlive-translator` package that contains the `translator.sty` LaTeX style document. As a result, tools that depend on `texlive-beamer` work correctly.

Description Steffen Froemer 2022-12-05 07:57:30 UTC
Description of problem:
RHEL8 does not provide the translator.sty (texlive-translator). It's a dependency when texlive-beamer is used. Therefore any tools depending on beamer are broken in RHEL8

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
texlive-beamer-20180414-25.el8.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. $ locate beameruserguide
/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/doc/latex/beamer/beameruserguide.pdf
/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/doc/latex/beamer/beameruserguide.tex
2. $ cp -a /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/doc/latex/beamer /tmp/test; cd /tmp/test
3. $ pdflatex beameruserguide |cat -n

Actual results:
   1	This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.19 (TeX Live 2018) (preloaded format=pdflatex)

Expected results:
beamerguide should be able to build successfully.

Additional info:
Using the package from EPEL8 (texlive-translator-20180414-9.el8.noarch.rpm) helps to mitigate the behavior.
