Hi,


the version of beamer shipped in Bullseye's texlive-latex-recommended contains a
bug preventing beamer files with multiple \printbibliography calls from being
processed successfully. This can happen if e.g. the bibliography is split in
literature sources for the content and another section for the images used in
the presentation.
The bug was already fixed upstream and modifying my installed files to apply
this patch was successfull in resolving the problem:


Sorry, we don't do backports. Assuming the fix is only a three liner,
you may put the fixed file into your local texmf tree. I tag the bug a
wontfix, we'll close it upon next release.

Bug#1001090: latex-beamer: backport bugfix for bibliographies to Bullseye

Package: texlive-latex-recommended
Version: 2020.20210202-3
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

the version of beamer shipped in Bullseye's texlive-latex-recommended contains 
a 
bug preventing beamer files with multiple \printbibliography calls from being 
processed successfully. This can happen if e.g. the bibliography is split in 
literature sources for the content and another section for the images used in 
the presentation.
The bug was already fixed upstream and modifying my installed files to apply 
this patch was successfull in resolving the problem:

https://github.com/josephwright/beamer/commit/a41c6a779ca1f921d536ea9d9a2785ff6d5df615

>From the datetags of Bookworm's and Sid's packages I'm assuming they already 
include the fix, but imho it would be a very good idea to backport it to 
Bullseye too — if my local modification is something to go by it should apply 
without conflicts.

A minimal sample failing to be processed in unpatched Bullseye,
but working with the patch, can be found further below.

Cheers,
Nils König
