mjenz/texlive repository overview

⁠TeX Live Docker image

This repo builds a set of TeX Live images. There is a CI pipeline which does a clean build once a week. Each variant is based on Ubuntu (focal, bionic, or xenial) with system Python 3 and just enough pre-requisites to pip-install scipy. The vanilla variants are available for 2021, 2020 and 2019.

Image variants:

• $distro-basic: ubuntu:$distro with TeX Live installed through apt without recommended packages
• $distro: $distro-basic plus recommended packages
• $distro-full: ubuntu:$distro with the texlive-full package
• $distro-vanilla-$year-basic: ubuntu:$distro with vanilla TeX Live $year installed using the basic scheme (minus documentation and sources)
• $distro-vanilla-$year: $distro-vanilla-$year-basic plus basically all the LaTeX packages except extra fonts and non-English languages (minus documentation and sources)
• $distro-vanilla-$year-full: $distro-vanilla-$year plus the rest of TeX Live (minus documentation and sources)
