See #93

first run of this on a new system yields:
xelatex not found. Please select a different --pdf-engine or install xelatex
apt installing texlive-xetex on my ubuntu system fixed it

On Ubuntu, this command:

apt-get install -y texlive-xetex

is not mentioned in the README.

It should be included in the docs.

If I encounter any other steps today I'll add them to this issue also.

On Ubuntu, how about instead of

sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base # Only for PDF papers

It says something like:

# A list of recommended packages:
sudo apt-get install -y git curl python3-pip python3-venv texlive-latex-extra texlive-xetex 
  • python3-venv and texlive-xetex seem to be required.
  • Optional: git and curl are needed when running in a docker container, which might not have those packages pre-installed. apt-get won't re-install them, so it doesn't hurt anything.
