Dear Experts,
We are using RHEL8-based distros and CentOS 8 Stream. For specific applications, some Tex-package are absolutely required. It turned out that these packages are not shipped with the available tex-packages in RHEL8 and CentOS8 Stream, e.g. texlive-pgfplots
We know that there are some workarounds at this point. Concerning all these options, is there an option that should be considered to be more or less reliable compared to the others? Which procedure would you prefer?
Thank you very much for your help.
Regards, Felix

Hi Felix,
I suggest to open a ticket here (create an account):
against EPEL8 and package texlive-extension
I did also miss some packages and the maintainer was very responsive and helpful.
