I had the same problem, until it just went away - I investigated and found that these options are part of the biblatex-software
package, which seems to be relatively recent.
In particular, my TeXLive distribution (2019) did not contain that package; after upgrading to TeXLive 2021, these options no longer lead to errors (if you're on Ubuntu >= 22.04 (jammy) or similar, look for the texlive-bibtex-extra
Ubuntu package; note: prior LTS versions of that package do NOT contain biblatex-software
).
In other words, instead of messing with the .bbx
file, do one of the following:
biblatex-software
manuallysoftware.bbx
from the biblatex-software
package next to your .tex
file(s)
When using the
acmart
BibLaTeX styles, the build fails due to invalid options.MWE:
fails with
The same is true for
style=acmauthoryear
. Copying the style file to the local build directory and removing the offending line triggers similar errors forswhid
,swlabels
,vcs
, andlicense
. Once all these are gone, everything seems to work fine.
