Bug#432517: (fwd) Bug#432517: Just upgraded from tetex to texlive. Latex package "caption" no longer works



Dear Axel, dear Arthur,

down here in the Debian Bug tracking system we got bug report a while
ago. It tells that the compilation of documents fails after upgrading
to TL 2007. The minimal example is:

\documentclass{aastex}
\usepackage[labelformat=simple]{caption}
\title{Test}
\author{Author}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\begin{abstract}
abstract
\end{abstract}
\section{section 1}
bla bla
\end{document}

It fails with the error message: \captionbox already defined.

Note that not a standard class is used but the "American Astronomical
Society format", which seems to contain an own definition of
\captionbox. When using the standard article class the problem
disappears. Hence I guess it is the fault of the fault of the aas
class.

Please discuss this topic and provide a possible approach how to
solve the problem.

Thanks,
  Hilmar

Compiling a document with aastex class and caption package with the new texlive distribution (2007-10) gives the following error:

/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/caption/caption3.sty:416:Command \captionbox already defined. \newcommand\captionbox{parbox[t]}
