Description Alex Lancaster 2012-11-17 21:44:21 UTC
Error when building emacs-common-ess on rawhide/f19 get error when building PDFs against latex:

! LaTeX Error: File `parskip.sty' not found.

see full koji log here:

http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/9232/4699232/build.log

According to the root.log:

http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/9232/4699232/root.log

the version is:

texlive-collection-latex     noarch 1:0.svn25030-8.20121115_r28267.fc19

Has something changed in the upstream texlive/latex that requires package changes?   This builds fine in earlier releases, e.g. f16.

Comment 1 Alex Lancaster 2012-11-18 01:02:48 UTC
I figured out this particular problem: I needed to add like this "BuildRequires: tex(parskip.sty)" 

However it still appears there a problems with the texlive version in f18, specifically I get a failure in f18, when building a dvi:

LANG=C texi2dvi ess.texi
make: *** [ess.dvi] Error 1

Here is the full log:

The same package works fine on rawhide/f19, here is the full log.

Hmm, looking around it it seems like this might be the same as bug #868011

Comment 3 Alex Lancaster 2012-11-18 01:32:17 UTC
Hmm, that wasn't the problem after all. I added

"BuildRequires:  tex(epsf.tex)"

for the f18, but still get the error:

http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/9402/4699402/build.log

:(
