Pandoc Docker images, starting with those for pandoc 3.5, are now multi-platform, meaning they are available for amd64 (x86-64) and arm64 (aarch64). This should give significant performance improvements for Docker users with ARM processors.

LaTeX images are multi-platform only when using the 3.5-ubuntu tags.

Tips on how to get a plain TeXLive installation working on arm64 running Alpine would be very welcome.

@pandoc

Are you using main and community repo on a stable branch, or on edge with testing also?

@Brett_E_Carlock Just main and community on an otherwise plain alpine 3.20. This is the Dockerfile right now: https://github.com/pandoc/dockerfiles/blob/main/alpine/latex/Dockerfile

@Brett_E_Carlock To explain a little: The TeXLive distribution doesn't offer binaries for musl on aarch64, so I tried to get by with gcompat, but some LaTeX programs seem to be unhappy with that. I couldn't find an easy way to install glibc.

@pandoc It looks like the APKBUILD for texlive on edge supports ARM64, so if you can go edge (for now) or wait until v3.21 finalizes, you might not need to fuss about too much.

I have never had success getting gcompat to do much for me, so I can't be of help.

As for GLIBC Alpine, I do not believe there are any workable guides, nor much appetite for it, either.
