Bug#571679: texlive-latex-recommended: should include ucs.sty

2010-03-10 Thread Robert Helgesson
Thank you for the reply,

 Did you try
   \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
 which is possible without -extra? Does this suffice?

Unfortunately no.  In my code, which works OK with texlive version
2009-7, I have

  \usepackage{ucs}
  \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}

Changing this to read only

  \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

will cause the following error:

  ERROR: Package inputenc Error: Unicode char \u8:∩ not set up for use
  with LaTeX.

  --- TeX said ---

  See the inputenc package documentation for explanation.
  Type  H return  for immediate help.
   ...

  l.30 $A$ of $Y$ is closed in $Y$ if $A=C∩
 Y$ for some closed set $C$
 in $X$.

So it halts with error when hitting the character '∩', the first
non-ascii character in the file.  Declaring the character manually
using

  \DeclareUnicodeCharacter{2229}{\cap}

Made this error go away (instead it complains about the next
undeclared character).  But I'd rather not have to manually declare
all the ones I use when they are already handled by the ucs package.

Best Regards,

/Robert

Bug#571679: Please bring back ucs!

2010-03-09 Thread Robert Helgesson
I'm wondering whether any action will be taken concerning this bug.
In particular I would very much like to see ucs back in -recommended
since installing -extra and its heavy dependencies would overflow my
netbook's already crowded drive.
