Are you sure that the use of symlinks is the only possible solution?

It is a nice balance between effort and effect.

:) No one remembers such things, because Debian has so much software!
If you wanted to investigate, here are two tools to check for packages
that would benefit:
1. apt-file search PATTERN # This searches files that are installed
# from .deb packages
2. https://codesearch.debian.net/ # This searches all source code

I will do better than that. Here you go:
https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/typesetting_math.html
If you don't have time to read/translate, look for the sample file, open
the sample file in Calibre, and check to see that it rendered correctly.
There is a PNG at this page that can be used to check for correct
equation rendering.

Nicholas
