Description of problem: After installing tetex-unicode, if you try to use the package in a LaTeX file (with \usepackage{ucs} and \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}), running pdflatex on it gives the error: ! LaTeX Error: File `ucs.sty' not found. This is despite the fact that ucs.sty has, according to rpm -q --filesbypkg, beein installed in /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/unicode/ucs.sty . Typing in this path when pdflatex asks for a filename reveals that other files installed by this package can't be found either. It appears that TeX, instead of just looking for the file, looks in an index first, and that this package's post-install script neglects to rebuild this index. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0-5.20041017.fc5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. $ yum install tetex-unicode 2. Try to compile a LaTeX file using the ucs package Actual results: pdflatex fails to find ucs.sty (and other files provided by this package) Expected results: pdflatex finds the files, uses them, and generates a pdf. Additional info: marked as high severity because it renders the package useless.
Strange, the package runs texhash after install, and thus updates the tex database. I've updated the scriptlets to use the same ones as those in the main tetex package. An update should be published soon. Please try it here in the meantime : http://gauret.free.fr/fichiers/rpms/fedora/tetex-unicode-0-7.20041017.noarch.rpm
Still present in FC6 (version 7.20041017.fc6)
Cannot confirm. But the package %description could be updated to read \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc} where it reads \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
