Description Camille Monière 2025-06-19 13:21:01 UTC
Please branch and build texlive/texlive-biblatex in epel9, so that biber/biber could be branched too

I'd like this for LyX as well.

Comment 2 Tom "spot" Callaway 2025-08-19 18:40:30 UTC
Just to make sure I understand, Red Hat no longer includes texlive as part of RHEL (presumably starting with RHEL 9)?

Comment 3 Gwyn Ciesla 2025-08-19 21:49:04 UTC
That is my understanding from the website's RHEL9 package manifest. Unless I'm missing some other weird repo.

Comment 4 Orion Poplawski 2026-04-16 21:31:11 UTC
On my RHEL9 system I see a lot of texlive package in appstream, just listing one here:

texlive.x86_64                                            9:20200406-26.el9_2                rhel-9-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms

But we are missing biblatex.  Generally with EPEL one requests missing packages be added to the texlive-extension package - which I have done for biblatex here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2459059
