Re: Xelatex report missing libraries, or fails at using fonts

Hi Eugenio,

If it worked before but stopped working, then that's probably due to the
changes mentioned here:
https://groups.google.com/g/pandoc-discuss/c/aj4mrQc5nuQ/m/bh_ALPp8AgAJ
We reduced the number of packages that ship with that image.

The recommended solution is to build your own Docker image locally.  For
that you'll need a file `Dockerfile` with the following content:

``` dockerfile
FROM pandoc/latex:2.17-alpine

# Install fonts via the Alpine package manager.
# Here we install 'Hack', a monotype font with support for many
# unicode chars.
RUN apk add --no-cache ttf-hack

# Install additional LaTeX packages. List all the one you need.
RUN tlmgr update --self && tlmgr install \
  enumitem \
  tcolorbox
```

Then run something like `docker build --tag myimage .` to build the
image and use it instead of pandoc/latex.

Let us know if the other issues persist when using the above method.

Cheers,
Albert
