However, following the above suggestion, I attempted to install texlive-latex-extra. It was already installed, but apparently some of its dependencies were not. Some dependency link is missing?
The content of that file would have been of interest. By looking at the further output the only explanation I have that you had a broken installation: even the version 2024.20240313.70630+ds-5+b1 depended on libicu76 (IIRC) so I'm wondering how you could have that version installed and libicu76 was absent.
I guess the issue has ben solved after libicu76 is present? Hilmar
