I completely agree, I think lack of reliable deb packaging prevents wider adoption of texmacs, which is a shame given how awesome it is

The official package does not remove Guile 2, I remember vaguely that Guile 1.8 is "integrated within TeXmacs" (I made up the expression, I do not know better) in that package. Which Scheme to use is a thorny issue, because, this is what I have understood, the current Guile 3 is not supported under Windows; Max Gubinelli did a classification work for the possible Guile replacements (see https://texmacs.github.io/notes/docs/scheming.html).

I do think that the ease of installation helps to get users, which are important for TeXmacs.

Didn't notice this removal. A snap or anything like that package, with
librairies, could not solve these dependencies issues ?

Thanks a lot for the address. I have seen that the package needs to
remove Guile 2, as it needs to install Guile 1.8, so I will have to wait
yet.

      Hi,

      I just switched to Ubuntu 22.04.1. The package in the repository
      for 21.10 won't install because of dependencies. And with the deb
      package downloaded and installed by hand, no python or tikz
      session works : i get a segmentation fault.

      Did anyone get a fully functional texmacs under the last lts
      Ubuntu version ?

      Thanks

      Marc
