Update typo-duc to latest unicode
by Udi Fogiel 27 Apr '26

27 Apr '26

Hello, A year a go I've ported the code in typo-duc to be used in other LuaTeX formats (it can be found here https://codeberg.org/polyglossia/unibidi-lua/src/branch/main/unibidi-lua.lua) Recently I've done some extensive work on it to update it to the latest unicode version and make the code conformant to the standard. The code now pass all the tests in BidiTest.txt and BidiCharacterTest.txt. Is there an interest to port it back to ConTeXt? If not, there are a couple of bugs that should be fixed ragardless, so let me know. In a somewhat different topic, I've noticed that the startofpar function returns true for new_graf_par_code and hmode_par_par_code subtypes, but to my understanding hmode_par_par_code can be at the middle of a paragraph, shouldn't it return true for new_graf_par_code and math_par_code subtypes? Kind Regards, Udi

LuaMetaTeX: "undefined reference" linking errors due to missing static specifiers
by Jonathan Gruber 20 Apr '26

20 Apr '26

If one builds LuaMetaTeX without optimization (by commenting out or deleting the automatically added optimization options), one encounters "undefined reference" linking errors: /usr/bin/ld: libtex.a(lmteffectslib.c.o): in function `effectslib_simplex_noise_1': lmteffectslib.c:(.text+0xb36): undefined reference to `FASTFLOOR' /usr/bin/ld: libtex.a(lmteffectslib.c.o): in function `effectslib_simplex_noise_2': lmteffectslib.c:(.text+0xcd1): undefined reference to `FASTFLOOR' /usr/bin/ld: lmteffectslib.c:(.text+0xce5): undefined reference to `FASTFLOOR' /usr/bin/ld: libtex.a(lmteffectslib.c.o): in function `effectslib_simplex_noise_3': lmteffectslib.c:(.text+0x118f): undefined reference to `FASTFLOOR' /usr/bin/ld: lmteffectslib.c:(.text+0x11a6): undefined reference to `FASTFLOOR' /usr/bin/ld: libtex.a(lmteffectslib.c.o):lmteffectslib.c:(.text+0x11bd): more undefined references to `FASTFLOOR' follow /usr/bin/ld: libtex.a(texmath.c.o): in function `tex_run_math_shift': texmath.c:(.text+0xfb54): undefined reference to `tex_aux_set_math_option' /usr/bin/ld: texmath.c:(.text+0xfb68): undefined reference to `tex_aux_set_math_option' /usr/bin/ld: texmath.c:(.text+0xfb7c): undefined reference to `tex_aux_set_math_option' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/luametatex.dir/build.make:115: luametatex] Error 1 make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:590: CMakeFiles/luametatex.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [Makefile:136: all] Error 2 'FASTFLOOR' is a non-static inline function defined and only occurring in 'source/luarest/lmteffectslib.c', and 'tex_aux_set_math_option' is a non-static inline function defined and only occurring in 'source/tex/texmath.c' (file paths relative to the root of the LuaMetaTeX repository). Since each of these functions occurs only in the file in which it is defined, both may be made static inline instead of only inline, which in fact eliminates the linking errors.

But the way of use has basically not changed. The main changes are as follows: 1. Now you can embed questions, and you can still get the answers and scores correctly. 2.
