Dear release managers, I am asking for an unblock of texlive-lang/2016.20170123-5 The package includes a backport for bug #856993 where using babel-french and fontspec resulted in a warning Package frenchb.ldf Warning: Add \usepackage{fontspec} to the (frenchb.ldf) preamble of your document, on input line 5. despite the fact that fontspec was loaded. This is due to a wrong test in babel-french, and is fixed in the latest release. Unfortunately, the lastest release changes many other things, too, so I am not confident to include all of these changes, but decided to only include the fix for the above bug. The debdiff consists of changes in the changelog and adding one patch to the patch queue: --- texmf-dist/tex/generic/babel-french/frenchb.ldf | 9 ++++----- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) --- texlive-lang-2016.20170123.orig/texmf-dist/tex/generic/babel-french/frenchb.ldf +++ texlive-lang-2016.20170123/texmf-dist/tex/generic/babel-french/frenchb.ldf @@ -1496,14 +1496,13 @@ \activate@luatexpunct \fi \ifFBunicode - \ifdefined\DeclareUTFcharacter - \else - \@ifpackageloaded{luainputenc}{}% + \@ifpackageloaded{fontspec}{}% + {\@ifpackageloaded{luainputenc}{}% {\PackageWarning{frenchb.ldf}% {Add \protect\usepackage{fontspec} to the\MessageBreak - preamble of your document,}% + preamble of your document, reported}% }% - \fi + } \else \begingroup \newcommand{\FBOTone}{OT1}% \ifx\encodingdefault\FBOTone This change is taken from the upstream new version, as well as is mentioned on TeX stackexchange as possible fix, when the bug first surfaced.
