Hi,
https://ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/pstricks/contrib/pst-barcode/
says that pst-barcode is included in texlive.
I installed texlive, and it can´t find pst-barcode.sty. Is that a
bug in the packaging Centos does, or is texlive in Centos some
derelict version?
CentOS has whatever version is in RHEL.
sudo yum provides '*pst-barcode*'
That says it is not available though in CentOS Linux 7.
texlive is a pain in the ass to have all the things that are included
in contrib and other areas. The Fedora package breaks into 5932
different subpackages and the RHEL is a sub-build of those which are
felt can be maintained for the lifetime of a EL release. If you need
more than what EL provides, most people just take the 10->28 hours to
build a set of tetex packages from the Fedora ones.
So far, it seems that this is pretty much the only thing that´s still
missing, and it´s probably not difficult to install. I´ll try that
first and see how it goes.
I could create a Fedora-VM and delegate this kind of work to it, but that
has its own issues ...
