Hello, I think the package is quite advanced. Of the features mentioned, I need to incorporate docbook, the problem is that the sources produce errors when compiling them, patches must be applied. I have added via plugins to lilypond and sweave/knitr, it seems like the best to me.
As for sweave/knitr, I really don't know if it is necessary to install additional R packages, it surely is. If that is the case I suppose it should be necessary to install a compiler. Reviewers mentioned that the appdata.xml file was incomplete, so I used a different one. Although you may not be able to use a generic one due to the customization of the information that must be provided regarding the contents of the package.
