Bug#63535: error with floating tables



Package: tetex-nonfree
Version: 1.0-10
Severity: normal
File: /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/seminar/semlayer.sty

Hello,

I encountered this error when attempting to use a floating table (ie one
that appears in a different spot) within the notes section of a seminar
file:

! Extra \else.
\process@@slide ...nish@slide \output@slide \else 
                                                  \setbox \@@slidebox \box \...
l.316 \end{slide}

the following patch "appears" to fix the problem (not sure if
this is the correct fix or not, just a quick hack):

*** /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/seminar/semlayer.sty	Fri Apr  2 08:00:00 1993--- semlayer.sty	Thu May  4 11:33:05 2000

      \finish@slide
!     \output@slide
    \else
      \setbox\@@slidebox\box\@slidebox
      \make@overlay{0}%

(also, this isn't the only problem I have encountered with seminar.sty,
just the first one I found the fix for).
