+texlive-plaingeneric - Required for Emacs org-mode PDF export
+=============================================================
+
+Installed: 2026-02-20
+
+Command:
+  sudo pacman -S texlive-plaingeneric
+
+What it provides:
+  - ulem.sty (underlining/strikethrough - required by org-mode LaTeX export)
+  - tracklang.sty (language tracking - required by datetime2 package)
+  - Other plain TeX utilities (soul, catcodes, expkv-bundle, etc.)
+
+Why it was needed:
+  Emacs org-mode PDF export (C-c C-e l p) was failing because ulem.sty
+  was missing. This forced us to use pandoc as a workaround for org-to-PDF
+  conversion in the finances project. Pandoc works but has limitations:
+
+  - Ignores #+ATTR_LATEX table alignment directives
+  - Defaults all table columns to left-aligned (needs lua filter workaround)
+  - Less integration with org-mode features
+
+  With this package installed, Emacs native org export works and
+  #+ATTR_LATEX directives are respected, eliminating the need for
+  pandoc and custom lua filters.
+
+Dependencies:
+  texlive-bin, texlive-basic (both already installed)
+
+Size: ~24 MB installed
