Hi Emma,

CC to qpack list as this is of general interest. And we prefer if all 
questions go to any of the arts and qpack lists.

The answer is:

[y,y_aux] = arts_y( Q );


There is now way to obtain the aux vars by qpack2. If you want this 
information you must use the more general qarts system, where then 
arts_y is the function to use. Or, of course, using arts directly.

Bye,

Parick
