Seeking Small LaTeX Package for Linux Installation

I attempted to install LaTeX on my Linux machine using sudo apt-get install texlive-full, which consumed over 7 GB of storage, causing my 120 GB SSD system to run out of space. As a result, I had to remove it. Could someone provide a link to a smaller LaTeX package (less than 1 GB) that is sufficient for my needs?

Any guidance or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

To uninstall the TeX Live package, you can use the following commands in the Ubuntu terminal:

sudo apt-get purge texlive-*
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
cd /usr/local/
sudo rm -rf texlive/

If you have the texmf folder in the home directory, you can remove it using a similar command.

For installation, you can follow these steps:

  1. Download the installation script:
cd /tmp
wget https://mirror.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/install-tl-unx.tar.gz
zcat < install-tl-unx.tar.gz | tar xf -
cd install-tl-*
  1. Run the installation script:
perl ./install-tl --no-interaction

If you encounter storage issues, you can use the following command instead:

sudo perl ./install-tl --no-interaction --scheme=small --no-doc-install --no-src-install

After installation, you need to update your PATH variable to include the TeX Live binaries. You can do this by editing the .bashrc file:

nano ~/.bashrc

Add the following lines at the end of the file:

export PATH='/usr/local/texlive/2023/bin/x86_64-linux:$PATH'
export MANPATH='$MANPATH:/usr/local/texlive/2023/texmf-dist/doc/man'
export INFOPATH='$INFOPATH:/usr/local/texlive/2023/texmf-dist/doc/info'

Save the file and run:

source ~/.bashrc

Now, you can use tlmgr to manage your TeX Live installation.

To convert a Markdown file (report.md) to a PDF using Pandoc with a specific template (eisvogel.latex), you can use the following command:

pandoc report.md -o report.pdf --from markdown --template=/*location-to-eisvogel*/eisvogel --listings

If you encounter a 'File 'sourcesanspro.sty' not found' error, you can initialize a user tree and install the missing packages using tlmgr:

tlmgr init-usertree
tlmgr --usermode install sourcesanspro

You may need to install additional packages based on the error messages. Simply run the pandoc command, check for missing files, and install them using tlmgr --usermode install $package_name.

These steps should help you manage your TeX Live installation effectively.
