TeXlive is missing the file suffix.sty. This seems to be a general bug in the distributed TeXlive package distributed by upstream because I found bugs in SuSe's bugzilla as well. Alexis, could you repackage a version and include suffix.sty? dustin@legolas ~ $ equery belongs $(locate acronym.sty) [ Searching for file(s) /usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/acronym/acronym.sty in *... ] dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2007 (/usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/acronym/acronym.sty) dustin@legolas ~ $ grep suffix $(locate acronym.sty) \RequirePackage{suffix} Missing suffix.sty makes use of acronym package fail. Thanks, Dustin PS: If emerge --info is required, please let me know. Reproducible: Always
(In reply to comment #0) > Alexis, could you repackage a version and include suffix.sty? No, because it's in tl-humanities (you can use texmfind to find such files). See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=420394 The required package from tl-humanities has been moved to tl-latexextra upstream, so that will be fixed in tl2008. I'm not sure if that's worth moving the files now since tl2008 should arrive soon. For now, you can just install dev-texlive/texlive-humanities and it should work fine.
should be fixed with texlive 2008 (still masked though, but i hope it wont be for long :) ) dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2008 (/usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/acronym/acronym.sty) dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2008 (/usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/latex/bigfoot/suffix.sty)
