Hello folks,

To everyone wondering, the only thing that is keeping me from releasing FPC 1.0.6 in Debian is the building of the documentation, apparently. Can anyone take a look and see why the PDF docs are not building anymore?

(And yes, I have customized by texmf.cnf.)

Thanks,
Carlos.

in docs/Makefile you need to remove 'fcl' from the HTML= at line 25

I checked out docs/ from the CVS, and I still get this:

! pdfTeX warning (ext4): destination with the same identifier (name{page.1}) ha s been already used, duplicate ignored
<to be read again>
\penalty
l.52 \newpage
[1] [2] (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/psnfss/t1pcr.fd) (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/psnfss/omsptm.fd)
! Undefined control sequence.
l.112 \<
[b] \synt{this\ can\ be\ repeated} \\ \>
?

(? is a prompt.)

Thanks,
Carlos.

IIRC this is an error that you get with newer TeTeX's if you don't install the extra TeX packages in the docs/packages directory of the docs.

Also be careful that there isn't some file with the same name (as one of the packages' files) somewhere in the texmf tree.

I just tried an innocent 'make pdf', which worked fine with FPC 1.0.4 :) 'make html' works, though. Can anyone take a look at the issue, if there is any, or am I the only one that cannot build the PDF documentation from source?

Try copying the syntax.sty from the debian/ dir to the docs dir. The official syntax.sty in tetex is an older version. I've already reported a debian bug for it a while ago.

The "debian/rules build" command will normally do the copy for you.
