Topic: weird LaTeX bug: fullpage + hyperref + listings on NixOS
Johan Commelin (Jan 24 2024 at 13:06):
Does the following LaTeX produce an error on your machine?
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\definecolor{keywordcolor}{rgb}{0.7, 0.1, 0.1} % red
\definecolor{tacticcolor}{rgb}{0.0, 0.1, 0.3} % dark blue
\definecolor{commentcolor}{rgb}{0.4, 0.4, 0.4} % grey
\definecolor{stringcolor}{rgb}{0.5, 0.3, 0.2} % brown
\definecolor{symbolcolor}{rgb}{0.1, 0.2, 0.7} % blue
\definecolor{sortcolor}{rgb}{0.1, 0.5, 0.1} % green
\definecolor{attributecolor}{rgb}{0.7, 0.1, 0.1} % red
\definecolor{errorcolor}{rgb}{1, 0, 0} % bright red
\usepackage{listings}
\def\lstlanguagefiles{lstlean.tex}
\lstloadlanguages{lean}
\lstset{language=lean}
\usepackage{scalefnt}
% When commenting out `fullpage', also change the filler text below.
\usepackage{fullpage}
\usepackage[unicode,colorlinks=true,linkcolor=blue,urlcolor=magenta, citecolor=blue]{hyperref}
\begin{document}
% Use the following filler text for testing without `\usepackage{fullpage}'
% \lipsum[1-4]
% \lipsum[2]

% Now we just need a tiny bit more filler text.

% Use the following filler text for testing with `\usepackage{fullpage}'
\lipsum[1-7]

Without the fullpage
+ hyperref
combo, I do not get an error. And the error occurs when there is a code block in a pagebreak.
Johan Commelin (Jan 24 2024 at 13:07):
Patrick Massot didn't have problems with this code. So it seems to depend on the precise versions of the packages involved.
Johan Commelin (Jan 24 2024 at 13:10):
- listings 2020/03/24 1.8d
- fullpage 1999/02/23 1.1
- hyperref 2023-02-07 v7.00v

I get
Package Listings: Couldn't load requested language.
Christian Merten (Jan 24 2024 at 19:18):
Both with and without fullpage
compile fine for me.

You need to save https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leanprover/lean4/master/doc/latex/lstlean.tex in the same directory as the above TeX file.
Mauricio Collares (Jan 25 2024 at 14:52):
I get
! Argument of � has an extra }.
<inserted text>
\par
l.56
| succ : Nat -> Nat
both with and without the fullpage
package (with the appropriate fillers) when compiling with pdflatex
. xelatex
works fine in both cases.
Kevin Buzzard (Jan 26 2024 at 22:05):
Is there a reason you're not using minted
instead?
Eric Wieser (Jan 26 2024 at 22:16):
The latest minted is a pain to use with Lean 4 until lean4#3125 can be merged (which is waiting on an upstream release)
Shreyas Srinivas (Jan 26 2024 at 22:16):
Can minted be used in overleaf?
Eric Wieser (Jan 26 2024 at 22:16):
(old versions of minted are ok)
Eric Wieser (Jan 26 2024 at 22:17):
Yes, it works fine in overleaf
Eric Wieser (Jan 26 2024 at 22:17):
Overleaf makes it easy to use old minted too (use TeXLive 2022 or maybe it was 2021)
Mauricio Collares (Jan 29 2024 at 11:21):
Just upgraded to TeXLive 2023.20240114 on NixOS, and I still see the same problem. Package versions:
listings 1.9 (2023/02/27)
fullpage 1.1 (1999/02/23)
hyperref v7.01g (2023-11-26)
