Package not working with TeX Live 2024

[khanson679]

I am unable to create any tableaux in the current version of TeX Live. The problem seems to be with the arydashln package. loaded by ot-tableau. Upon testing, it seems that the package has become incompatible array as well as colortbl, the latter also loaded by ot-tableau.

The workaround I wound was to disable dashed lines using command \ADLinactivate provided by arydashln. MWE provided below.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{ot-tableau}
% \ADLinactivate % uncomment to compile

\begin{document}
\begin{tableau}{c|c|c:c}
\inp{abcde} \const{A} \const{B} \const{C} \const{D}
\cand[\Optimal]{abcde} \vio{}   \vio{}   \vio{} \vio{}
\cand{abzzz}          \vio{*!} \vio{}   \vio{} \vio{*}
\cand{abyyy}           \vio{}   \vio{*!} \vio{} \vio{}
\cand{nom-mu}          \vio{}   \vio{*!} \vio{} \vio{*}
\end{tableau}
\end{document}

I will report this to the author of arraydashln, but in the meantime you may want to add an option to disable shading in ot-tableau so that we can at least have dashed lines. I tried to modify the source code myself but was unsuccessful as many changes need to be made.

I don't have the code in front of me, but finding packages that create shaded cells and dashed lines has been most of the work on this package.

Is your comment referring to the current CTAN version? There are two branches of the repository, one of which might work.

The version from TeX Live 2024 is 2023-08-01, which is also the newest CTAN version. The "shading" branch from Github does work, since it doesn't load arydashln at all.
