Bug#432517: (fwd) Bug#432517: Just upgraded from tetex to texlive. Latex package caption no longer works
Dear Hilmar and Arthur,
The caption package is only adapted to specific document classes which
are listed in the caption package documentation, section Document
classes Babel support. The aastex document class is not on the list.
But since I changed the name of the command \captionbox to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] in version v3.1f (2007/11/11) to avoid incompatibilities
with existing \captionbox definitions, newer versions of the caption
package hopefully make less trouble when used with the aastex document
class.
In fact the example below compiles fine when using the actual version
v3.1j (2008/08/24) of the caption package. (It results in the warning
Package caption Warning: Unsupported document class (or package)
detected, usage of the caption package is not recommended. See the
caption package documentation for explanation. but this is OK and
documented.)
Warm regards,
Axel

Dear Axel, dear Arthur,
down here in the Debian Bug tracking system we got bug report a while
ago. It tells that the compilation of documents fails after upgrading
to TL 2007. The minimal example is:
\documentclass{aastex}
\usepackage[labelformat=simple]{caption}
\title{Test}
\author{Author}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\begin{abstract}
abstract
\end{abstract}
\section{section 1}
bla bla
\end{document}
It fails with the error message: \captionbox already defined.
Note that not a standard class is used but the American Astronomical
Society format, which seems to contain an own definition of
\captionbox. When using the standard article class the problem
disappears. Hence I guess it is the fault of the fault of the aas
class.
Please discuss this topic and provide a possible approach how to
solve the problem.
Thanks,
Hilmar

Hi Ralf, sorry for late rply.

Right, thanks for your correction.
However, I expect the aastex.cls needs its definition of
\captionbox. So the only real solution would be to ask the authors of
the packages to find some sort of cooperation.
I agree with you and is there anyone who will be so kind
to contact the upstream author?

Sorry for the delay.
I upgraded from texlive2005 to texlive2007 on July 10. Previously, I used to
compile documets with aastex document class and caption package without any
problem. With the new version, the following tex file doesn't compile:
%%%
\documentclass[]{aastex}
\usepackage[labelformat=simple]{caption}
\title{Test}
\author{Author}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\begin{abstract}
abstract
\end{abstract}
\section{section 1}
bla bla
\end{document}
%%%
The problem is simply solved by changing the line
\newcommand\captionbox{parbox[t]}
in caption3.sty to a renewcommand, but then if I use another document class I
get the opposite problem.
Thanks
Alessandro

I'm almost certain that this is caused by upgrading of caption
package from v3.0c to v3.0k but I can't tell whether this is a
bug of caption package or aastex and caption package simply don't
cooperate well.
The problem is simply solved by changing the line
\newcommand\captionbox{parbox[t]}

get the opposite problem.
Perhaps a better workaround might be to copy caption3.sty to

aastex document class only in that directory and a file with
another document class in another directory.
Perhaps we need to clarify the problem more stricly.

I don't have TeX Live 2005 but have teTeX 3.0 and found that
in teTeX 3.0, caption.sty was
\ProvidesPackage{caption}[2004/07/16 v3.0c Customising captions (AS)]
but in TeX Live 2007, it is
\ProvidesPackage{caption}[2007/01/07 v3.0k Customising captions (AR)]
\RequirePackage{caption3}[2006/01/12] % needs v3.0i or newer
So I guess it might be a regression but it will be a great
help for us if you will send a minimal example file as Hilmar
already requested.
