Hi Ricardo,

Thanks for your comments!

Ooops, I didn't know there were distinct packages for that! The binaries
are sufficient here.

texlive-tiny doesn't work, and after experimenting for about an hour
I have given up on finding a small combination of packages for
a texlive-union. It needs ifluatex.sty which apparently is part of
texlive-latex-oberdiek, but if I add that package the test fails
in creating a temporary directory for whatever reason.

Another shortcut is disabling the one test case that depends
on LaTeX, and thus completely remove texlive from native-inputs.
Does that sound like an acceptable solution?

Cheers,
  Konrad
