I'd just like to add that this is needed for interoperability with desktops running Lenny, if one wants to collaborate on writing a paper using revtex, since revtex4.1 is not an option (without manually installing) on older versions of debian. Perhaps it could be added to the existing revtex package that holds revtex3? -- David Roundy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#561836: please include revtex4 in addition to revtex4.1
revtex4-1.cls is supposed to be a drop-in replacement for revtex4.cls The bugs mentioned in this report should now be fixed upstream, making the reversion to 4.0 in debian unnecessary. Please update the debian distribution (in unstable at least). Thank you Alan Release of REVTeX 4.1 (patch level 1) March 15, 2010: A new release of REVTeX 4.1 has been made public. The following bugs were addressed: * Using the same \affiliation more than once results in some authors not getting any affiliation at all. * reftest was left out of the distribution * For RMP, the \cite command doesn't enclose the citation in parentheses properly. * For RMP, the .bst files don't properly handle several cases including a book with editors, but no authors In addition, there were many other improvements including the handling of footnotes, compatibility with packages such as lscape and hyperref, and punctuation in bibliographies. Also, the "long" version of the BibTeX style files have been removed from the distribution. The remaining style files have been enhanced to provide the same functionality when the longbibliography class option is used. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

That is for upstream TL. The Debian fix will take some time, I
want to first straighten out all the bugs, then we will update the
actual stuff from the svn repository (which will bring several new
updates, too).

Bug#561836: [tex-live] Bug#561836: please include revtex4 in addition to revtex4.1
I think it is a matter of time when somebody as for revtex4 class option wrapper in order to use documents written using revtex4 package. FYI, I suggested that to the APS as soon as I realized what had happened with revtex4.1 (ie, that revtex4.cls had disappeared). They rejected the idea. I don't know the official way to send them feedback. Meanwhile, Norbert has reinstalled revtex4 (from TL07). It should be available in TL after tonight's build. k -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Yes, that's a good idea. I've been recently bitten by one of the bugs myself and had to patch things up manually (already reported upstream). REVTeX 4.1 is not a drop-in replacement for REVTeX 4 and thus should be a separate package.

Dear all,
on the Debian side we got a bug report that we ship revtex 4.1 which
seems to be broken, according the aps itself:
http://authors.aps.org/revtex4/index.html
and ask for inclusion of revtex 4.

What about adding a new tlpsrc package
revtex4
that ships the original revtex4 version which is still working?
Should we do that in TeX Live?

A throaty cough by someone else so timed as to obscure the crucial
part of the rather amusing remark you've just made.

I would suggest that you post this question to the TeX Live list itself.
texl...@tug.org
which is our upstream.

Bug#561836: please include revtex4 in addition to revtex4.1
Hi Norbert, The 4.1 version is in a separate class file: revtex4-1.cls so there is no filename conflict. Actually, because of this it is impossible to process revtex4 files with the never texlive without modifications. This by itself must be considered a bug of texlive. Example: % latex energy.tex This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (TeX Live 2009/Debian) restricted \write18 enabled. entering extended mode (./energy.tex LaTeX2e <2009/09/24> Babel and hyphenation patterns for english, usenglishmax, dumylang, nohyphenation, bulgarian, ukrainian, russian, loaded. ! LaTeX Error: File revtex4.cls' not found. I think that upstream had reasons to name the new revtex class differently, advising its users to keep both versions (perhaps, at least until the bugs of 4.1 fixed). -- Stanislav -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I am not sure that this can be done, since there will be (probably,
didn't check) a file name conflict. And we try to follow upstream
texlive.

Package: texlive-publishers Version: 2009-4 Severity: wishlist The amount of scientific papers prepared for revtex4 is huge. Moreover, as [1] suggests one should not upgrade to 4.1 at this moment due to bugs in the latter. Therefore, I believe it would be more reasonable to ship two versions of revtex. Please, consider this. [1] http://authors.aps.org/revtex4/index.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
