Package: org-mode
Version: 8.2.4-1
Severity: normal

When trying to preview LaTeX fragments (M-x
org-preview-latex-fragment), org-mode would always render them as an
empty square.

I assume that the org-mode Recommends: are intended to support a
reasonable amount of LaTeX functionality and that this includes
fragment previews.

The messages buffer says:

    Creating images for entry...1
    Failed to create dvi file from /tmp/orgtex6051Enf.tex
    Creating images for entry...done.  Use `C-c C-c' to remove images.
    Cannot find image file 
`/home/daf/nodiadau/ltxpng/stats_0d8993806dd464f0964819bd5f50f0d603f1db38.png'

Looking at /tmp/orgtex6051Enf.log, we find:

    ! LaTeX Error: File `soul.sty' not found.

apt-file tells us that soul.sty is part of texlive-latex-extra, and
indeed installing it makes previews work. Somewhat obnoxiously, this
Recommends: an extra ~350M of documentation.

The fact that rendering failures are semi-silently ignored (the error
message doesn't perceptibly appear in the minibuffer) could also be
considered a bug.
