Description giunta 2021-09-28 10:06:44 UTC 
Description of problem:

The version of TeXmacs for el8 requires fig2ps as dependency, but it is not available on EPEL.

A version of fig2ps is distributed in TeXmacs source and it is compiled during rpm build, but at the end it is removed (probably by spec file).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

TeXmacs-2.1-1.el8

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. dnf install texmacs

Actual results:

Error: 
 Problem: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides fig2ps needed by TeXmacs-2.1-1.el8.x86_64

Expected results:

Successful installation
