Bug#571679: [tex-live] moving ucs back to -recommended

 Hi everyone,

 From a Debian bug report:

 - Forwarded message from Decklin Foster deck...@red-bean.com -
 Somewhere between Lenny and now, ucs.sty was moved from -recommended
 to -extra. As UTF-8 support is (I believe) a release goal, I would
 - End forwarded message -

 I somehow agree that making inputting utf8 with -recommended would be
 a nice thing. I don't want to dig through the dependencies now, but
 are there any specific reasons why we moved ucs package to latexextra?

Aside from already mentioned things, ucs also breaks pdf title, author
and keywords. It gets stuff like
[Pleaseinsert\〰ぐrerenderUnicode{Ž}intopreamble] for every non-ASCII
character.

I would keep it in extra.

Regards,

Catched in hyperref 2010/03/10 v6.80m (TUG server, tomorrow CTAN).

BTW: \PrerenderUnicode from ucs.sty:

| \...@newcommand\prerenderunicode{%
|   \...@ifstar{\@prerenderunicode\unichar...@prerenderunicode\@gobble}}%
| \...@newcommand\@prerenderunicode#1#2{%
|   \begingroup
|   \unicodecharfilt...@gobble
|   \let...@gobble\setbox0\hbox{#2}\endgroup}

should use \sbox0{#2} instead of \setbox0\hbox{#2} to prevent
leakage of color specials.

Yours sincerely

Well, ucs isn't required for utf8 input, \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} is enough.
Maybe ucs has a better coverage, I'm not sure, but I don't see a problem with it
being in -extra, since there is already something for utf8 input in 
-recommended.

Manuel.

Well, I myself always use \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}, but without
knowing why. Probably I had problems at some point with [utf8] ...
