What is the package name for stix2

[shmuelmetz]

I have a LaTeX document that uses stix2; I can’t use stix because ArXiV doesn’t support XeTeX. There is a texlive-stix package, but I can’t find stix2. Is there an RPM for stix2 in one of the standard openSUSE repositories, and, if so, what is its name? Thanks.

Hi
It’s available for Tumbleweed, not for Leap 15.1, you would need to add the Publishing:TeXLive repository and upgrade all the tex stuff…

Project: Show Publishing:TeXLive - openSUSE Build Service

Stix2 package here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/Publishing:TeXLive/texlive-specs-v/openSUSE_Leap_15.1

Repo to add: https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Publishing:/TeXLive/openSUSE_Leap_15.1/

Any idea why it’s not in LEAP 15.1? IAC, I was able to install it. Thanks.

Remember,
If you don’t want to take chances polluting your installation,
You install virtualization like Virtualbox, and in your case install TW and stix2, to safely process your document.

Other than virtualization which would be a universal solution for practically any compatibility problem, there might be other solutions where a particular version of an app might be completely self-contained with all its necessary components, like AppImage, Snap, docker, etc.
