Title:
  14.04LTS: Garbage in pdflatex output with invoice.sty (fix included)

Status in “texlive-extra” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When using pdflatex with the graphics and invoice packages in Ubuntu
  14.04 LTS, garbage output is present on the first page of the PDF
  output.

  How to reproduce:

  Create file test.tex:

  -----8>-----
  \documentclass{article}

  \usepackage[english]{babel}
  \usepackage{graphics}
  \usepackage{invoice}

  \begin{document}
  foo
  \end{document}
  ----->8-----

  Run "pdflatex test.tex", "evince test.pdf".

  The first page shows garbage (a list of dates), followed by the
  expected output:

  -----8>-----
  [2007/09/09] ... [2009/07/12]foo
  ----->8-----

  Notes:
    - The problem doesn't show up in Ubuntu 12.04LTS, with a local copy of the 
invoice LaTeX package (12.04LTS doesn't provide the invoice package),
    - Removing "\usepackage{graphics}" makes the garbage go away,
    - Removing "\usepackage{invoice}" makes the garbage go away.

  The following patch fixes the problem:
