Need specific LaTeX utiliities for EL7
I am looking for EL & RPMs of specific LaTeX utilities compatible with the TeX/LaTeX base/packages installed from the SL7 install DVD: XeLaTeX Biber Texindy Makeglossaries Asymptote I have found these as installable images for other distros, including some Fedora. If these packages are available by some other mechanism such that the SL7 Latex system can download, compile, insert, etc., any of these, advice and instructions would be most appreciated. As a fast LaTeX GUI front end, I use Texstudio that has a X86-64 CentOS 7 RPM available at the Texstudio Sourceforge site and that installs and runs fine under SL 7. The only WYSIWYG I have found is BaKoMaTeX that is licensed for fee (with actual pricing in Euros). Is there any licensed-for-free LaTeX WYSIWYG (not LyX that produces LaTeX but internally is not LaTeX)? Thus far, I have not found such a WYSIWYG. Yasha Karant <>

I have Kile, LyX, Texstudio, etc., and cannot afford BaKoMaTeX . However, that was not the primary thrust of my enquiry. I am looking for specific LaTeX utilities in a SL7 or compatible port (RPM preferred, but LaTeX "automagic" utility installation methods will suffice), the list being: XeLaTeX Biber Texindy Makeglossaries Asymptote Any assistance would be appreciated.

Start by checking https://rpm.pbone.net, so you can search by package names, or included files, and restrict your search to compatible releaes. If they're commercial, good luck. If they're open source, they may be available on Fedora and feasible to backport.
