Hi all, I want to update the `MathTexEngine` from `0.4.3` to `0.5.0`. However, the `Pkg` threw these errors.

```julia
(@v1.7) pkg> add MathTeXEngine@0.5

From my understanding of the [`Pkg`’s doc about how to resolve conflicts](https://pkgdocs.julialang.org/dev/managing-packages/#conflicts), I thought that the main obstacle might be `CairoMakie`? For it limits `StaticArrays` to be `0.12.5`, far behind the latest `1.5.4`, which eventually hinders the update of `MathTexEngine`.

I am not sure if I was right. Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks!

Makie hasn’t updated to 0.5 yet. The update requires [jk/glyph indices by jkrumbiegel · Pull Request #2139 · JuliaPlots/Makie.jl · GitHub](https://github.com/JuliaPlots/Makie.jl/pull/2139) as far as I understand

It seems like you’re installing the packages in the base environment `@v1.7`. If you don’t need `Makie` and `MathTexEngine` in the same project, you can create a separate environment for `MathTextEngine` and avoid the conflict. `import Pkg; Pkg.activate("your/project/folder"); Pkg.add("MathTexEngine")` will create the new environment in the project folder you specify and install `MathTexEngine` in that environment.

I need to use `MathTexEngine` to print some LaTeX equations within `Makie`, so unfortunately, I cannot separate them into two environments. But I still learned to set different environments for different projects which might be helpful soon. Thank you!
