Bug#484157: latex.pdf: messed-up PDF table of contents

[Patrik Fimml <patrik@fimml.at>]

Package: texlive-latex-base-doc
Version: 2007-14
Severity: normal

In /usr/share/texmf-texlive/doc/latex/base/latex.pdf, the hyperrefs that
appear in any PDF viewer's table of contents (evince, acroread - also called
"Bookmarks") are badly messed up.  For example, the first entry under
/Commands/Counters is labeled as

{@fam=@ttfam @def rm{tt}@tentt @backslashcurfont } addtocounter

instead of just "addtocounter". This makes the otherwise very convenient PDF TOC
rather useless.

(I've taken the freedom to strip some extra details as the problem is clearly
related to a shipped file, not my particular setup.)

Kind regards,
Patrik
