Dear Maintainer,
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Opening a lyx-document using g-brief again after not using lyx
for some weeks.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Got this warning (and the document classes letter
(g-brief) / letter (g-brief2) weren't available:
| Warning: Document class not available
|
| The selected document class
| letter (g-brief)
| requires external files that are not available.
| The document class can still be used, but the
| document cannot be compiled until the following
| prerequisites are installed:
| europs.sty
| See section 3.1.2.2 (Class Availability) of the
| User's Guide for more information.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Opening the file successfully.
* What did you discover?
1. europs.sty is gone from Debian:
(really old apt-file data):
$ apt-file search europs.sty
texlive-fonts-recommended:
/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/eurofont/europs.sty
# apt-file update
$ apt-file search europs.sty
$
2. The document still renders OK in lyx. The EUR symbol works.
3. g-brief did depend on europs at one time --- that was changed
in 2003 (V4.0.1)
See Debian Bug #176153 for the old code, in
http://ctan.unixbrain.com/macros/latex/contrib/g-brief/g-brief.pdf
the documentation for V4.0.1 says europs, marvosym and eurosym
are embedded into g-brief *if installed on the machine*.
* How did you fix it?
Taught lyx the dependency on europs.sty for g-brief/g-brief2
isn't necessary any more:
