Bug#418232: Chapter title in page header broken for memoir class
Package: tetex-extra
Version: 3.0.dfsg.3-4
I'm just forwarding bug #78423 from Ubuntu
(see http://launchpad.net/bugs/78423 for the complete report):
According to the documentation for the memoir.cls (page 78 of memman.pdf),
if one uses \chapter[Short title]{Long title}, then "Short title" should be
used in the table of contents, and in the page headers.
The current version in ubuntu instead gives an empty title in page
headings.

How to fix:
The file:
/usr/share/texmf-tetex/tex/latex/memoir/mempatch.sty
contains patches to memoir.cls
This exact bug is fixed by version 3.6 of mempatch.sty. Ubuntu contains
version 3.5 Therefore, this bug is fixed by updating to a more recent
upstream version.
