Hi,

The newly submitted pgfplots and alegreya packages are already included in
the texlive-extras package also in the repo albeit a different version as
the texlive-extras package has not received an update.

It also doesn't install the files in the correct location. it places the
files in /usr/share/texmf-var/ (which is meant for cached runtime data
files) rather than /usr/share/texmf-dist (or at a pinch
/usr/share/texmf-local although that would be the equivalent to installing
packages in /usr/local/ which we do not do in SBo).

However, if the scripts are modified to install in /usr/share/texmf-dist,
they will overwrite the files provided by texlive-extras, and would get
overwritten when texlive-extras is updated.

At least this should be mentioned in the README files.

Hope this helps

Cheers

Greg
