A requested package cannot be installed:

Continue installation anyway? (Y/n) n

# urpmi --test xorg-x11-font-utils
No package named xorg-x11-font-utils
Looking for xorg-x11 in rpmdrake I have these packages
These have been packaged in OpenMandriva going back to Mandriva:

I don’t know how up to date this package is but it works and has for a long time. Also note that it is in restricted repository.
Do we have developers with free time to do something like this? I don’t know. Couldn’t some of the users here write such a script and submit it for packaging? Don’t know that either.
Do we have some one here that knows enough to conduct a script writing seminar within this forum? That would be interesting. It certainly is something I should know better…
Lyx is in OM repositories. It is not the latest version though latest I believe is 2.3.0. Some people think Lyx is the very best latex editor.
$ urpmq -i lyx
Name : lyx
Version : 2.2.3

Summary : A word processor for the Desktop Environment
Description :
LyX is a modern approach of writing documents with a computer
which breaks with the tradition of the obsolete typewriter
concept. It is designed for people who want a professional
output with a minimum of time effort, without becoming specia-
lists in typesetting. Compared to common word processors LyX
will increase the productivity a lot, since most of the type-
setting will be done by the computer, not the author. With LyX
the author can concentrate on the contents of his writing,
since the computer will take care of the look.
If you want to discuss this further we should close this topic and start another.@rugyada sees all.
It is because LaTeX uses its own fonts. You you like to use system TrueType fonts you may use some variants like XeLaTex or LuaTeX or you may convert them as in the article you posted.
