Bug#446476: [texhax] Bug#446476: natbib cannot handle utf8

2007-10-14 Thread Chris Rowley
Hi Norbert

It is indeed a TeXlive recommendation and it is not clear where they
get their advice from.

Our problem is that so closely connecting latex and recommended
suggests this may be our classification.

This does not imply that we think that ucs.sty is wrongly classified;
merely that the Project Team does not necessarily have any input into
this -latex-recommended list.

I guess here is a small misunderstanding, the ucs.sty is contained in
the TeX Live collection "collection-latexrecommend", which transfers
into a Debian package "texlive-latex-recommended".

I don't know how ucs.sty ended up there, the decision on what is
"recommended" and what "extra" is quite difficult to carry out. If you
think that it is completely wrong please let us know on

Thanks a lot and all the best

Norbert

The bug is there if I use ucs.sty and it goes away when I switch
from utf8x inputenc to utf8 and remove ucs.sty, or when i leave
ucs.sty in and use utf8,utf8x as argument to the inputenc package.

This is my logic...
