Do you really need OT2? ot2enc.def not found prevents verifyproblem from succeeding on CentOS 8 #179

Open godmar opened 3 years ago

problemset.cls contains a statement

\RequirePackage[OT2,T1]{fontenc}  % Cyrillic and standard % TODO: make alphabet options more general

which requires a file ot2enc.def that is difficult to find. For instance, on CentOS 8, yum whatprovides ot2enc.def doesn't find it. Googling for it says that OT2 is some old (1990's) encoding of Cyrillic characters, now succeeded by T1 or T2A.

Perhaps this should be removed? Otherwise, verifyproblem will fail since pdflatex exits with a non-zero code.
