Centos 7 is a bit buggy on pdf so it requires workaround
run following commands:
yum search tex | awk \'/^tex/ { print $1 }\' | xargs yum install -y
mkdir -p /usr/share/texlive/texmf-local/tex/latex/comment
download this file http://ping-viini.org/comment.sty to location
/usr/share/texlive/texmf-local/tex/latex/comment/comment.sty
with root owner and permission 664
run following command:
cd /usr/share/texlive/texmf-local/tex/latex/comment ; texhash
it should work after this hack-a-round ? test with my openvas-check-pdf
script?
