Package: latex-xcolor Version: 2.00-1
When using the xcolor package, latex complains that it cannot find the file "svgnam.def", which contains the predefined named SVG colors. Here is the error message when trying to run latex on an input file (xcolor_test.tex, see attachment) which uses the predefined svgnames: [EMAIL PROTECTED] latex xcolor_test.tex This is e-TeX, Version 3.14159-2.1 (Web2C 7.4.5) entering extended mode (./xcolor_test.tex LaTeX2e <2001/06/01> Babel <v3.7h> and hyphenation patterns for american, french, german, ngerman, b ahasa, basque, catalan, croatian, czech, danish, dutch, finnish, greek, iceland ic, irish, italian, latin, magyar, norsk, norsk, portuges, romanian, russian, s lovak, slovene, spanish, swedish, turkish, ukrainian, nohyphenation, loaded.

Transcript written on xcolor_test.log. Including the generated file "svgnam.def" in the package should fix the bug. This is how I fixed the problem. Downloaded the source package, ran "latex xcolor.ins", copied svgnam.def to /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/xcolor, and ran texhash. Isaac Sijaranamual
