Description Zoltan Puskas 2017-04-03 09:34:05 UTC

dblatex fails to build any pdf documentation that uses \@xmultirow. This problem seems to have been triggered by texlive-latex-extra 2016.20161008-1, whose multirow.sty has a different \@xmultirow macro that takes six arguments rather than five.

Solution on https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=840189 seems to work.

I have noticed this when trying to build kicad-doc-4.0.5.

Comment 1 Zoltan Puskas 2017-04-03 09:46:27 UTC

Apparently fixed in dblatex-0.3.9 so maybe I'm better bumping the version than monkey patching 0.3.7.

Comment 2 Zoltan Puskas 2017-06-26 04:19:38 UTC

Up for review in https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/4991

Comment 3 Fabio Rossi 2017-10-05 14:22:43 UTC

same problem here, when dblatex is going to be updated in portage?

Comment 4 Zoltan Puskas 2017-10-07 04:37:03 UTC

I have updated PR 4991 on github, so hopefully it will be merged soon.
