You can install a set with extra packages by using something like


<code>(texlive.combine {
<code>(texliveMedium.withPackages (ps: with ps;[xifthen ifmtarg framed paralist titlesec]))
inherit (texlive) scheme-medium xifthen ifmtarg framed paralist titlesec;
})
</code>
</code>
For a minimal set of packages needed for Emacs Orgmode, as described in org-latex-default-packages-alist variable, install these packages:
<pre>
{ config, pkgs, ... }:
let
  tex = (pkgs.texliveBasic.withPackages (
    ps: with ps; [
      dvisvgm dvipng # for preview and export as html
      wrapfig amsmath ulem hyperref capt-of
      #(setq org-latex-compiler "lualatex")
      #(setq org-preview-latex-default-process 'dvisvgm)
  ]));
in
{ # home-manager
  home.packages = with pkgs; [
    tex
  ];
}
</pre>
== Adding a Custom Package ==
If you have a custom LaTeX package or style file that is not part of the TeXLive distribution, you can add it to the package set like this:
First, create a derivation for your package. The contents of <code>$out/tex</code> will later be placed in <code>texmf/tex</code>
latex-corporate-identity = pkgs.stdenvNoCC.mkDerivation {
  name = "latex-corporate-identity";
  src = ./path/to/package/tree;
  installPhase = "cp -r $src $out";
  passthru.tlType = "run";
};
texlive-corporate-identity = {
  pkgs = [ latex-corporate-identity ];
};
The directory tree under the path specified as src looks like this:
└── tex
    └── latex
        └── corporate-identity
            ├── corporate-identity.sty
You can now add the package to the combined set as you would with any other texlive package:
tex =(pkgs.texlive.withPackages (
    ps: with ps; [
      texlive-corporate-identity
  ]));
