Bug report

24 Jan '07

Hi all! Long time ago Frank forwarded a bug from the Debian Bug Tracking System to you, but it has not been fixed, so I allow me to remind you: >From Michal Kovac <kovymail(a)centrum.cz>: > In cont-cz is translated "indentation" and "indenting" both as > "odsazovani" so indentation does not work in cont-cz. > > I think right translation is for it : > indenting - odsazovani > indentation - odsazeni > setupindentations - nastavodsazeni > setupindenting - nastavodsazovani > > I think that bug is in files: > /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/mult-con.tex > /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/mult-com.tex > /usr/share/texmf/context/data/cont-cz.tws I checked with the latest release and the czech names are still the same for two different translations, as described above. Thanks a lot for considering this ..., if there is a better place to submit bugs, let me know.

about a change in the context packaging
by Norbert Preining 23 Jan '07

23 Jan '07

Hi all! Release notes from 2007.01.23: Gnuplot module (m-gnuplot.tex) removed from the core distro. This file is superceded by the third-party module But it is not contained in cont-ext.zip. Is this intended?

incorrect internal mptopdf conversion
by Sanjoy Mahajan 23 Jan '07

23 Jan '07

Here's a problem that I just noticed in the internal mptopdf conversion macros. The fig.1 figure looks fine as a mps (eps) file, and 'mptopdf fig.1' converts it fine. However, including it in a document as fig.1 (hence via the internal mps to pdf conversion) adds strange thick lines to it. Here is the .mp file, and I've attached a complete .zip archive with a .tex file and Makefile to generate the comparison. =========================== fig.mp ================================= % equilateral triangles cut in half % cutter is the path that cuts the triangle in half def half_triangle(text cutter) = path tri, enclosed; z0 = (2cm,0); z1 = z0 rotated 60; tri := origin--z0--z1--origin; enclosed := (cutter)--z1--point 0 of (cutter)--cycle; fill enclosed withcolor 0.65white; draw tri; dotlabel (btex etex, point 0 of (cutter)); dotlabel (btex etex, point 4000 of (cutter)); draw cutter; enddef; % replicate the triangle and path to make hexagon def replicate_six_times = % move triangle so that is at the origin, then shrink it currentpicture := currentpicture shifted (-z1) scaled 0.7; for i = 1 upto 6: draw currentpicture rotated (60*i); endfor enddef; % replicate the triangle bisected by line straight across beginfig(1) half_triangle(point (2+sqrt(0.5)) of tri--point (2-sqrt(0.5)) of tri); replicate_six_times; endfig; end =================================================================== Program versions: pdfTeX, Version 3.141592-1.40.0 (Web2C 7.5.6) ConTeXt ver: 2007.01.12 15:56 MKII fmt: 2007.1.13 int: english/english MPtoPDF 1.3.2 MetaPost 0.993 -Sanjoy `A nation of slaves is always prepared to applaud the clemency of their master who, in the abuse of absolute power, does not proceed to the last extremes of injustice and oppression.'

TeXLive 2006
by Taco Hoekwater 22 Jan '07

22 Jan '07

Hi, I have good news as well as bad news. The good news is that the coming TeXLive will be nicely up to date when it comes to ConTeXt (currently at 2006.12.07). The bad news is that core-fnt and core-ext will not be included. Apparently, the first package that uses a certain directory becomes its 'owner' when it comes to TeXLive's distribution build scripts. Since there are already a number of fontpackages for LaTeX included, there is no way to add metrics for ConTeXt as well. I have proposed to look into the build scripts, but the reaction I received was luke-warm at best, so I am not going to persue this any further. I am sorry for everybody that wanted to see some of the third-party modules in TL. It should still be possible to have them included if one of you is willing and able to make the effort of renaming the used folders so as to avoid conflicts with LaTeX packages, but I simply cannot be bothered any more. Best, Taco

lm
by Hans Hagen 19 Jan '07

19 Jan '07

There is a new release of lm .... we have prepared new releases of LMs and TGs. At the moment we put them in non-public directories: http://bop.eps.gda.pl/0lm101-wrk/ and http://bop.eps.gda.pl/0tg-wrk/ for a "quarantine". We hope that only tiny details may need correcting, but... can someone more familiar with math (guess who) take a look at it and see if we can switch from cm math to lm math?
