disallow ulem package #246

Closed kmccurley closed 5 months ago

kmccurley commented 6 months ago

It seems that the ulem package causes havoc with our style, and I have removed it from the docker image. Unfortunately there are a fair number of other packages that depend on ulem, including changes.sty, coop-writing, fixmetodonotes, colorist, etc. Moreover the features of the ulem package seem pretty useful. Apparently this problem with our style was to interfere with the behavior of \em, but the author of the ulem package offers the option to load with \usepackage[normalem]{ulem} so that it doesn't interfere with the \em command. One possible solution is for us to load this way, and another is to check to see if ulem is loaded at the end of the preamble, and then call \normalem.

I found a couple of papers that appear to rely upon commands from the ulem package, namely \sout for strikethrough. If this package interferes with iacrcc.cls, then we might consider checking after the preamble whether ulem was loaded and if so call \normalem. This is the suggested method for the ulem package.

Indeed, better to support ulem and when it is used amke sure the style is not affected. Fixed in 8ff11da12ea95df2c84bdc7ceaf97871da08a4c2.
