CentOS - Sep 2017 - https://ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/pstricks/contrib/pst-barcode/

Hi,

https://ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/pstricks/contrib/pst-barcode/
says that pst-barcode is included in texlive.

I installed texlive, and it can?t find pst-barcode.sty.  Is that a
bug in the packaging Centos does, or is texlive in Centos some
derelict version?

CentOS has whatever version is in RHEL.

sudo yum provides '*pst-barcode*'

That says it is not available though in CentOS Linux 7.

texlive is a pain in the ass to have all the things that are included
in contrib and other areas. The Fedora package breaks into 5932
different subpackages and the RHEL is a sub-build of those which are
felt can be maintained for the lifetime of a EL release. If you need
more than what EL provides, most people just take the 10->28 hours to
build a set of tetex packages from the Fedora ones.
