Created attachment 490539 [details] Test file Xelatex can't output math symbols when using fontspec. Even leaving the font unchanged and loading fontspec doesn't help. This bug looks essentially like the one described here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-bin/+bug/364627 If you compile the test file I've attached, the sum symbol does not display. Unfortunately, the fix described here: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg631117.html does not work. This is with fully up-to-date F14: [rgheck@rghquad ~]$ rpm -q texlive-xetex texlive-xetex-2007-56.fc14.x86_64
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This is still a bug on Fedora 17! Why does Fedora 17, a 2012 linux distribution, still use texlive-2007? Please reopen, I don't have permission to do so.
Dimitrios, have you tried TeX Live 2012 from my repo? # rpm -i http://jnovy.fedorapeople.org/texlive/2012/packages.fc17/texlive-release.noarch.rpm # yum update
Thanks Jindrich, I've been fighting with this the last hour or so. In particular some packages miss dependencies and I had to install them manually, like for example tex-euenc needed from tex-xltxtra I think. Now I'm having trouble with package tex-xgreek, doing \usepackage{xgreek} gives an error.
The new texlive has new virtual provides for styles so if xgreek is missing, just try: # yum install 'tex(xgreek.sty)' and it will install a package shipping this style. Hope that helps.
Thanks, didn't know about that syntax! However this didn't help in my case as the package was already installed. FWIW I am assuming I am missing some obscure dependency, so when I do \usepackage{xgreek} xelatex complains with the following message: (BTW it worked on texlive-2007) Package `xgreek' version 2.4 by Apostolos Syropoulos ! Undefined control sequence. \ds@monogreek ->\language \l@monogreek l.445 \ExecuteOptions{monogreek} Jindrich, is it easy to try \usepackage{xgreek} and tell me if it works with xelatex? I am curious if I broke something on my system.
It seems that greek hyphenation patterns aren't installed/loaded. Have you tried to install texlive-hyphen-greek to fix it? Or better is to install the whole texlive-collection-langgreek to avoid all the problems.
Yes, the error is with all these packages installed (all of collection-langgreek). Is it reproducible for you? If not it's quite probable I've messed something up, that's why I'm asking.
Created attachment 629353 [details] output from using xelatex on sample file It seems it works for me.
Suggest to: # rpm -qa | grep ^texlive | xargs rpm -e and the install again: # yum install 'tex(xetex)' texlive-collection-langgreek Then it should be fine.
Removing all and reinstalling didn't help. However I resolved the issue by doing the following: echo "monogreek loadhyph-el-monoton.tex" >> /usr/share/texlive/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.dat fmtutil-sys --all I'm not sure why language.dat didn't include monogreek, it could be a packaging bug or some misconfiguration from my part that I've forgotten about. Thanks for helping Jindrich, hopefully texlive-2012 will make it in fedora 18!
Oh, and the original bug is resolved, math symbols are just fine with texlive-2012, with or without fontspec or xgreek.
Strange: echo "monogreek loadhyph-el-monoton.tex" >> /usr/share/texlive/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.dat and running fmtutil-sys --all is exactly what installation of texlive-hyphen-greek does.
Are you sure it doesn't add "loadhyph-el-polyton.tex" instead of "loadhyph-el-monoton.tex"? The latter is for modern Hellenic language while the first one is for ancient.
