I think we already have it, at least as part of texlive
```

Agreeed. The correct project homepage is https://personal.psu.edu/~jcc8/software/latexmk/ though (version 4.76).

What is the purpose of having this outside of texlive?

Comment:
I personally need it for vimtex compiling:

I use tectonic as backed but I guess it would be helpful to have latexmk as well. Correct me please if I'm wrong.

Comment:
Interesting, I was not aware of that.
Then having `latexmk` as separate pkg would make sense.

And maybe it would be nice to have some `tex` fonts in repo which supports cyrillic text...
Can't find...

Comment:
On a second thought: tectonic V2 supports continuos compilation (something like watch), so perhaps you're able to bypass latexmk completely using just vimtex? I see some issues/wp in vimtex to this regard. Does it make sense to you?

Comment:
Is this the issue you have in mind?

    https://github.com/lervag/vimtex/issues/2280

From what I'm reading, vimtex author (justifiably) does not want to integrate continuous compilation with tectonic, see these relevant comments https://github.com/lervag/vimtex/issues/2280#issuecomment-994005073, https://github.com/lervag/vimtex/issues/2280#issuecomment-994009179. The reason being that there is no way for vimtex to know the compilation status from the watch mode of tectonic.

Comment:
Yes, and you are right: at the moment is not a viable option to drop latexmk.
