Hi, thanks for running the code.
The color package is correctly installed, I think, since I can compile
colored text in latex outside pyx.
I printed the full error, which I report below. It seems that at the end
pyx does not find the pyx.def. I searched it in the HD and I found the file
in the correct folder; however, I think I found the problem, my username
has an accent, and clearly tex interprets that utf8 character wrong:
! LaTeX Error: File `*C:/Users/JOS\unhbox\voidb@x \penalty \@M \
{}1/AppData/Loc*
* al/Temp/pyxeg9r80wk/pyx.def*' not found.
Now, is strange that this happens when latex is run by pyx, but not
normally when compiling a document.
best,
Jose
The expression passed to TeX was:
\usepackage{color}%
\PyXInput{4}%
The return message from TeX was:
*

(c:/texlive/2017/texmf-dist/tex/latex/graphics-cfg/color.cfg)

After parsing the return message from TeX, the following was left:
