Description Attila 2023-07-17 09:41:22 UTC
pdflatex throws out an error on Fedora 38 when I try to create a PDF document from a tex file.
It no longer works since I upgraded from Fedora 36 to Feodra 38.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a tex file like

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{ae}
\usepackage{german}
\usepackage{wasysym}
\begin{document}
{\Large \Square} ~Test
\end{document}

2. Execute the command pdflatex
Actual Results:  
! Missing number, treated as zero.
<to be read again> 
                   \protect 
l.226 ...eMathSymbol\mho     {\mathord}{wasy}{"30}

Expected Results:  
pdflatex should create the PDF document.

It works if I change the order of the packages from "german", "wasysym" to "wasysym", "german".

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{ae}
\usepackage{wasysym}
\usepackage{german}
\begin{document}
{\Large \Square} ~Test
\end{document}


Like I mentioned, the order of the packages did not matter on Fedora 36.

Fedora Linux 38 entered end-of-life (EOL) status on 2024-05-21.

Fedora Linux 38 is no longer maintained, which means that it
will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we
are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora Linux

field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see
