Templates g-brief, g-brief2
Hallo,
I wanted to suggest a correction of the requirements of the three templates
g-brief2.lyx
g-brief-de.lyx
g-brief-en.lyx
Problem:
If I open a new document using these templates, I get an error, that
europs.sty is not found.
My System:
--
Lyx 2.0.4 + Win7-64 + TexLive 2012 Full
Solution Suggestion:
The dependency on
europs.sty
and (if existing) also on
marvosym.sty
eurosym.sty
can simply be removed.
Verification:
-
- The Document compiles well without europs.sty
- The Version of g-brief2.cls contained in most recent texlive 2012 reads
\IfFileExists{marvosym.sty}
{\RequirePackage{marvosym}}
{}{}
\IfFileExists{europs.sty}
{\RequirePackage{europs}}
{}{}
\IfFileExists{eurosym.sty}
{\RequirePackage{eurosym}}
{}{}
So, the packages are only optional.

Uwe, do you have a view about this?

Re: Templates g-brief, g-brief2
I found one more verification:
In the official documentation "g-brief.pdf", it is written (Ch.9
"Bugfixes", Version 4.0, translated):
"The inclusion of packages for the support of the Euro Symbol has been
corrected. Up to now, there was a Class Error in case of missing packages."
So, now there is no error in g-brief.cls for missing eurosym.sty /
europs.sty any more.

Re: Templates g-brief, g-brief2
I looked further into it... Package marvosym is also not forcibly required by g-brief and g-brief2. It just provides symbols, which are not used in the class definitions and also not in the templates. Perhaps the author of the g-brief package wanted, that some symbols for office use: \EUR, \Telefon, \Letter ... are always readily available. I would suggest to improve the introductory lyx note to the template g-brief2.lyx. Instead of "Note also the document preamble settings", I would write: Document settings -- Available Languages (Package babel required): English, English (USA), German, German (New Ortography) Lines/Markers: See document preamble settings. Symbols (only if Package marvosym installed): \EUR \Telefon \Letter \Smiley ... and remove the requirement of g-brief2.lyx from package "marvosym" "europs", "eurosym" Hallo, I wanted to suggest a correction of the requirements of the three templates g-brief2.lyx g-brief-de.lyx g-brief-en.lyx
Re: Templates g-brief, g-brief2
Max, could you produce corrected versions of these files and post them here? Actually, this should all be moved to lyx-devel, so post them there including some of this explanation. That'll get the attention of the right people. This list is more for discussion of LyX's documentation. Richard On 09/20/2012 07:17 AM, Max Funk wrote: I looked further into it...

I have continued this on lyx-devel. 20.09.2012 21:03, Richard Heck: Max, could you produce corrected versions of these files and post them here?

Thank you. i have now removed the europs dependency and adopted the introduction note according to your proposal: http://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset/ba0454fd0c1b1857688a3e8a36d2067928380486/lyxgit We never had a dependency on eurosym and marvosym. You can always use these packages at any time if you want. best regards Uwe
Re: Templates g-brief, g-brief2
Thanks :-) There is still the small issue left: In "Help -> Latex-Configuration", section 3.17 and 3.18, LyX searches for classes g-brief-de and classes g-brief-en and does not find. There are two templates, but only one class: g-brief. I fixed that also in my proposal. best regards, Max Am 15.10.2012 01:33, schrieb Uwe Stöhr: Thank you. i have now removed the europs dependency and adopted the introduction note according to your proposal: http://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset/ba0454fd0c1b1857688a3e8a36d2067928380486/lyxgit
