That's likely the hardest part. > On a fresh Fedora 26 install I was able to get "make pdfdocs" to build > (hurrah!) after adding Just sent a version 2 of the script, with support for Fedora 26. I tested with a Fedora lxc container. The only package I had to manually install there is perl. I'm pretty sure that a minimal Fedora image (outside a LXC) already comes with perl, so I guess the script is an improvement over manually checking all needed dependencies. > ImageMagick > latex > sphinx-build > texlive-adjustbox > texlive-babel-english > texlive-capt-of > texlive-cm > texlive-cmap > texlive-ec > texlive-eqparbox > texlive-euenc > texlive-fancyhdr > texlive-fncychap > texlive-framed > texlive-hyphen-base > texlive-mdwtools > texlive-multirow > texlive-parskip > texlive-tablefootnote > texlive-tabulary > texlive-threeparttable > texlive-titlesec > texlive-unicode-data > texlive-upquote > texlive-wrapfig > xelatex There is a package called "python-sphinx-latex" that seems to install almost everything needed for Fedora 26. This one, plus: xelatex texlive-adjustbox It also optionally require DeJavu fonts. are enough for PDF build. You still need: ImageMagick graphviz for both html and pdf targets, if you want to have support for images. > which ended up installing about 160 RPMs. Figuring out the right > texlive parts wasn't much fun; footnote.sty is well-hidden in > texlive-mdwtools, for instance, and without texlive-babel-english the > build failed with very mysterious errors in userspace-api. Yeah, that's why I think the right solution is to have a script that will identify the distribution and install the missing dependencies.
