1 month ago This is already covered by the set output directory option, like in:
\robExtConfigure{
set output directory={.aux}
}I just tried to be sure and it works on my side, so I'll close the issue. If you still experience an issue with this option, please re-open with a full example.

1 month ago Thank you for looking into this!
I tried precisely that. The directory .aux/robustExternalize is created, but there seems to be a problem with compiling the robExt-6____F.tex file, see ___-compilation.log below.
latexmk from neovim with vimtex plugin (runs something like latexmk -verbose -file-line-error -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode -pdf -emulate-aux-dir -auxdir=.aux)
$ latexmk --version
Latexmk, John Collins, 31 Jan. 2024. Version 4.83Do you have any idea where the problem could be? @tobiasBora Would like to reopen the issue, but I don't have the option :).

1 month ago Really?? That is really confusing, I tried to run it with exactly your command and files and it works for me:
I’m wondering, how have you installed robust-externalize? Maybe you have an outdated version, can you try by downloading the .sty file from github and put it at the root of your project, and run exactly the above commands?

Indeed, it really is confusing. I have installed latest texlive on Arch. Anyway, even with .sty from github, the compilation hangs.
Running following script hangs on compiling .aux/robustExternalize/robExt-____.tex. Below, I include both output until hang, and also after aborting with Ctrl+d.
#!/bin/sh
# minimal-example.sh

ls -la

echo "———————————— \$ cat .aux/robustExternalize/*.log"
cat .aux/robustExternalize/*.logDo you have any idea why this might be the case? I noticed that your latexmk also found .latexmkrc in home directory, do you have there anything possibly relevant?
Let's have (for example) the following
aux_dirsetup forlatexmkin the file.latexmkrc(I like to avoid clutter of
aux/log/...files betweentexfiles)I was unable to figure it out (worked fine wihout custom
aux_dir), I always obtained errors of the typeeven if I tweaked some configuration options from subsection
6.3.5 Configuration of the cachein documentation.Is there a way to get it to work, or perhaps it needs to be implemented on
robust-externalizeside (something likeset output directory, just foraux directory)? I will gladly provide additional information on my setup, what I tried and what was failing.
