binder: Install packages required for Jupyter to PDF convert #714
Conversation
Per jupyter/nbconvert#1328, these are the packages needed for Jupyter to be able to convert to PDF. Without it, you get unfriendly errors like [this] (2i2c-org/infrastructure#3188 (comment)). Given that the binder image includes jupyter, and texlive is included in the base, I hope it would be reasonable for the binder image to include enough texlive packages for PDF conversion to work. Otherwise, it works in RStudio but not in Jupyter.

Yay, thanks @eitsupi. The julia test failure looks intermittent and unrelated. |

Yay! Thank you, @eitsupi! I appreciate it :) Would this trigger a rebuild of the various rocker/binder: images? If not, would it be possible to kick off a rebuild of those? |
Today's new release of RStudio Server has already triggered a build. |
- Matches what we do in other images - Simplifies this image *a lot* - Knitting still takes time the *first time* even if we just switch to new base image. But rocker-org/rocker-versioned2#714 installs some of the texlive packages that are being installed the first time, and should speed things up. Ref 2i2c-org/infrastructure#3178
