I'm seeing this too, with ~100 texlive packages pulled in on upgrade
in a VM. I think this is caused by new dependencies between texlive
package. E.g. I had texlive-kpathsea installed, presumably because it
is required by texlive-dvipng which is required by python3-matplotlib,
and upon upgrade this pulls in texlive-context, which pulls in
texlive-pstricks, which pulls in texlive-biblatex, which pulls in
texlive-xpatch, and so on. The dep was added back in #1270202.
Dunno. python3-matplotlib pulling in the whole latex stack is going to
be painful. Maybe we could "downgrade" the dependency in python-matplotlib
to something like
Recommends: dvipng
Requires: (dvipng if texlive-base)
?
That's actually it!
I think moving it to Recommends (if it doesn't break anything) would be a good idea. I assume Recommends are not installed in koji/mock?
Thanks,
Richard
