Even if the side effects can be ignored, it is wrong to change primimitives in order to fix bugs in macro packages. Maybe it is sufficient to write a little file fixpdftest.tex: ___________________________________________ \input ifpdf.sty \ifpdf \else \let\pdfoutput\undefined \fi ___________________________________________ and put the line \input fixpdftest into your LaTeX document before any other macro package is loaded. Some people might not check \pdfoutput but \pdftexversion, for instance. If you encounter such a file, you can add the line \ifpdf \else \let\pdftexversion\undefined \fi to fixpdftest.tex. However, the best thing you can do is to politely ask the author of the package to fix the bug. If you are unsure whether there is a bug in a particular package, ask here before you complain. Please note that nothing I said above had been tested in any way.
