I think I found a bug in tex.linebreak.

Consider the following code


function prelinebreak (head, groupnode)  --- for pre_linebreak_filter
                                          --- for example
   local n,t

   n, t = tex.linebreak(node.copy_list(head), {looseness = -1})
   print("looseness=" .. t.looseness)
   n, t = tex.linebreak(node.copy_list(head), {looseness = 0})
   print("looseness=" .. t.looseness)

   return true

end

and pass it in head a long enough hlist so that looseness -1 actually
works. The second line breaking with looseness=0 reports the previous
looseness ... same happens if you have looseness=+2 or +1 or so

it seems that tex.linebreak always reports the looseness of the previous
linebreak action in case you pass it a "0"

it helps if you also set some more (either explicit or at the tex
level), like:

   looseness=1,
   tolerance=4500,
   pretolerance=100,
   emergencystretch=655360

not sure I understand Hans, on the TeX they are set (once) -- are you
saying one needs to set them as part of the params table for
tex.linebreak as in

   { looseness = 0, tolerance = tex.tolerance ....

just re-providing to tex.linebreak what is already set on the TeX level?

my thoughts without having seen the internal code of tex.linebreak is
that if looseness = 0 the value that is reported at the end is actually
never set so retains whatever the last time was put there (which is not
making a problem while it is always 0 but shows the wrong value once you
ever set it to non-zero and later back
