Bit late, as one of the historic mirrors ran out of space and messed up our workflow:
#TeXLive2025 is now available as historic image via our #IslandOfTeX #docker image registry
registry.gitlab.com/islandoftex/images/texlive:TL2025-historic
So in case you are scared by the changes provided by TeXLive2026, feel free to use it (But please ensure to keep one pipeline running texlive:latest to help testing. Thanks!)

Spent the night debugging and configuring the transfer of my system to a new-old computer. 😴
At least most of the configuration carried over by copying dot-files and the dconf settings.But two major things kept me up: the display, and #neovim. I'll write more later.
Also installed #texlive2025, this time not from the Ubuntu repos.The reason I didn't postpone it is that I have an #application deadline today 😱 for which I need my neovim and #LaTeX config.

[Howell breathes a long relieved sigh]
Before and after.
Canvas' infamous automatic ratings of #accessibility. In the proud bean-counting brain-dead tradition of provosts and deans, the thing they can measure is the thing we must make number-go-up.
Lots of steps to get Debian to run #texlive2025. Then a few steps to configure Org properly to export #TeXLaTeX that produces #taggedPDF output.
I promise the Fediverse I will write up all the steps and make a blog post.
tl;dr thanks to Dr. Kenny Ballou at Cal State San Marcos https://kennyballou.com/blog/2025/08/tagged-pdfs-org-export/index.html

Okay, gang, more vacation-work. Going all-in on #accessibility, and it appears I need #texlive2025 to produce semantically #taggedPDF output from #TeXLaTeΧ. I'm still on #Debian12 so here goes.
# may take several hours to run
LOL
Advice or pointers to resources welcome. Obviously the final goal is #OrgMode export in #Emacs.

Wer arbeitet hier auch regelmäßig mit #LaTeX ?
Does anybody work regularly with LaTeX?
In my opinion it should be used more in #school or #university. It is so much powerful for writing reports or something like that.

Heute in der beliebten Kategorie: Spass mit LaTeX:
Ich habe ein LaTeX Projekt was im PDF/A Format sein muss. Um zu prüfen, dass ich da nichts kaputt mache habe ich eine Pipeline, die prüft, dass die PDF im PDF/A-2b format ist (das war die Einstellung die ich damals gewählt habe).
Seit einigen Wochen ist die Pipeline deswegen gefailed, die Lokale Version lief noch und ich konnte mir nicht erklären, warum die Pipeline gefailed ist.
Heute habe ich mir das mal angeschaut: Seit LaTeX Kernel Version 2025-06-01 wird automatisch eine PDF mit Version 2.0 erzeugt wenn man PDF-Tagging aktiv hat.
Meine Pipeline hatte eine neuere TeXLive Version, die das Update drin hat, bei mir Lokal war das nicht der FallAlso habe ich in der Pipeline eine PDF 2.0 mit PDF/A-2b erzeugt. Was nicht gehen sollte, da PDF/A-2b auf PDF 1.7 aufbaut.
Nachdem ich das rausgefunden habe hatte ich 2 Möglichkeiten: Manulle PDF 1.7 einstellen oder PDF/A-4 nutzen. Habe mich jetzt für das Letztere entschieden.
