Using Xournal++

Support Software & Applications
1

Hi

I am trying to use the app Xournal++.

The package is in community.

I want to use the Latex insert function. But it will not work. Checking logs, gives me this info :

! LaTeX Error: File `standalone.cls' not found.

Type X to quit or <RETURN> to proceed,
or enter new name. (Default extension: cls)

Checking this with google tells me, that i need to install texlive-latex-extra. See here : https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/270888/installing-latex-standalone-in-ubuntu-for-humans

But Manjaro is based on arch, and the package here is called texlive-latexextra. I have the package texlive-latexextra installed :

$ pacman -Q texlive-latexextra                                             ✔ 
texlive-latexextra 2021.61405-1

I search with pacman :

$ sudo pacman -F standalone.cls                                      ✔  29s 
extra/texlive-latexextra 2021.61405-1 (texlive-most) [Installiert] 
usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/standalone/standalone.cls

Seems to me that I have it installed.

What is the problem here? Any help will be appreciated.

Many thanks.

Working on my side following the above method. Try reinstalling xournalpp:

sudo pacman -Rns xournalpp && sudo pacman -S xournalpp
sudo pacman -S texlive-latexextra

This way, everything concerning TeXLive is installed.
