What happened?
pandoc fails:
$ pandoc file.md -o file.pdf
Error producing PDF.
! LaTeX Error: File `lmodern.sty' not found.
Type X to quit or <RETURN> to proceed,
or enter new name. (Default extension: sty)

l.19 \ifPDFTeX
What have I tried?
The error is clear: lmodern.sty is missing. I tried to find it:
$ pacman -F lmodern.sty
extra/texlive-core 2023.66594-7 (texlive)
usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/lm/lmodern.sty
$ pacman -Si texlive-core
error: package 'extra/texlive-core' was not found
# However, it is provided by texlive-basic
$ pacman -Ss texlive-core
extra/texlive-basic 2023.66594-14 (texlive) [installed]
TeX Live - Essential programs and files
$ pacman -Ql texlive-basic | grep lmodern.sty
# couldn't find it tho
How can I find lmodern.sty and make pandoc work again?
