Bug#666791: marvosym.sty: redefines \EMail which is already present in g-brief.cls (texlive-latex-extra)

[Evgeni Golov <evgeni@debian.org>]

Package: texlive-fonts-recommended
Version: 2011.20120322-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

since the last update(?, not 100% sure, but it happened in the last month)
marvosym.sty contains
\newcommand\EMail{\mvchr{107}}          \let\Email\EMail
This is quite unfortunate, as g-brief.cls (from texlive-latex-extra) had
\def\EMail#1{\def\email{#1}} \def\email{}
for quite a long time now, and people were using it :)

It wouldn't be that bad, but g-brief uses marvosym iteself... :)

Regards
Evgeni
