I work on Ubuntu (and Debian) and have for a decade (and almost 2 1/2) . (On both tinytex
does not work for me, was never needed, and just gets in the way. I wish rmarkdown
and knitr
allowed to not have it.).
And as author of pinp
it obviously works for me. You are probably "just" lacking some of the in-distro packages of texlive. I recommend studying the error message for 'missing file' messages and going to packages.ubuntu.com to search for which package has them.
As a shortcut, it looks like pgf
is missing and I seem to have that from texlive-pictures
:
edd@rob:~$ grep -l "/pgf/" /var/lib/dpkg/info/texlive-*list
/var/lib/dpkg/info/texlive-pictures-doc.list
/var/lib/dpkg/info/texlive-pictures.list
edd@rob:~$
Ok thanks for the quick reply. I got it to work. For those that might encounter the same problem these are the steps I took to fix it:
tinytex
with tinytex::uninstall_tinytex()
texlive
texlive
using aptitude
: aptitude install texlive-full
texlive-science
: aptitude install texlive-science
Nice. I'll close this then.
I think tinytex
, while useless to you and me, will still creep back in as a Depends of rmarkdown
or knitr
.
I'm getting the exact same error as shown here (Last updated on 2019-08-29 02:49:05 CEST): http://cran.utstat.utoronto.ca/web/checks/check_results_Rcpp.html
I tried reinstalling my TeXLive distribution on Ubuntu using
tinytex
but that didn't work. I'm not really sure how to provide a reproducible example with a reproducible environment for this issue.
