NOTE

       An important note for debian users: to prevent a lightweight library such as libmaruku-ruby to pull in  heavy  dependencies  like  texlive,
       libmaruku-ruby  does  not  depend on texlive (but only recommends it). This means that if you do not install texlive, you will not have PDF
       output.
