Bug#635491: latex-unicode bug+patch: requires PDF output, but should not
forwarded 635491 jeltsch@informatik.tu-cottbus.de
thanks
(Please keep 635491@bugs.debian.org in the CC in replies.)
I discovered the "missing ucs.dtx" described in my previous message
while trying to prepare a patch for latex-unicode; I wanted to make it
a clean patch to the ucs.dtx file (true "original" source), but as I
did not find that file, here's that patch in form of a patch to the
ucshyper.sty file directly. Here's a description of the bug it solves:
ucshyper.sty tries (buggily) to disable itself when (la)tex is not run
in PDF output mode. But ucshyper works like a charm when producing a
DVI meant for post-processing with dvipdfm (and hyperref loaded with
hdvipdfm driver). I have only tested it with pdf(la)tex running in DVI
output mode, but I expect "plain" (la)tex would work just as well.
Patch attached. Assumes e-tex (uses \ifdefined). I assume this is OK.
I disabled the loading of hyperref, so that the user can choose hir
hyperref driver freely; instead a call to \hypersetup{unicode=true},
and hence a requirement that ucshyper be loaded *after* hyperref.
What would be your thoughts about upgrading the warnings (or maybe one
of them) to errors?
When I say that is buggy in its detection of PDF output mode, I
obviously refer to the issues explained in
http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=whatengine
As it should not try to abort when not in PDF mode, that point is moot
anyway.
