> Could you send us a minimal example for reproduction? > I'm attaching a simple example that shows the problem. It's not only beamer that doesn't work, but any latex document fails when you use package footcite. Just try: latex footbib-problem.tex
> Di you try to check if there is a newer version of footbib, which > wouls solve your problem? > I tried using the newest footbib.sty from CTAN. And ran into another error. The footbib instructions say: do this: latex footbib-problem.tex bibtex footbib-problem.fb latex footbib-problem.tex latex footbib-problem.tex The second step fails with some errors. I have attached another txt file with the output of the first two commands in this series. I hope this helps address the issue. If you need more info, let me know. Andres
