Thanks for packaging! I tried the package that was pushed to testing and I got the following error when attempting to use siunitx:

Here is the test file I used:

From some manual testing with the GitHub repo it seems that, without modifications, siunitx 2.7a-2.7g are compatible with RHEL 8.

After some more investigation this error appears to be due to the contents of TUG 2018 tlnet-final at [1-2] changing since the RHEL texlive-l3kernel package was built. The RHEL l3kernel package was built from revision 45340 but the package currently on TUG is revision 50036. In between those revisions it appears that `\seq_const_from_clist:Nn` was added to l3kernel. To me that suggests two possible solutions:

1. Rebuild l3kernel with latest package with TUG 2018 tlnet-final.
2. Retrieve siunitx from the time l3kernel was retrieved for the current RHEL package.

Thanks,
Evan

Could you please try texlive-siunitx from this build https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=87698888 and let me know if it works?

Thank you so much!

That latest update works. Built several documents that use siunitx and they all built without errors. Thanks!
