Latest release 22.03 fails

[cpholguera]

Hi @daamien,

the latest release has unfortunately broken our document generation pipeline. We were using "stable" until now and I've tested it now with 22.01 and it works as expected. Since we didn't introduce any changes I assume that something should be wrong in pandocker itself.

Here's the PR I'm using for testing, it includes all the info and links to the failing run and the successful run.

https://github.com/OWASP/owasp-mstg/pull/2092

If you have any suggestions or idea why it's failing please let me know and I'll try it. Before doing a regression in our pipeline I wanted to check it with you first.

Thanks a lot in advance!

[daamien]

Thanks for the report, I'll look into it

Sorry for the inconvinience

You can temporarly switch back to the 21.02 tag and your pipeline should work as previously

This is related to the latex underscore package which breaks the build process when an image filename contains an underscore

Hi @daamien, now the issue is in the MASVS repo as well (we didn't try this when I posted the issue, so it is not really new).

Every language seems to work but the farsi version fails. This is the error:

Hi @cpholguera

I'm currently working on upgrading the entire toolchain and I just a produced a new image based on ubuntu, Pandoc 2.19 and TexLive 2022... This is a huge leap forward and I have good hopes it will solve the problems we had with the underscore package and other languages

Can you try to use temporarly the latest-ubuntu-full tag and let me know if it works ?

[cpholguera]

I will, thank you very much @daamien!

@daamien Unfortunately I'm getting the following error:

@cpholguera

I added missing packages and got it working with

docker pull dalibo/pandocker:latest-ubuntu TAG=latest-ubuntu ./tools/docker/pandoc_makedocs.sh Document

except for the emojis but that's another story :)

[cpholguera]

Hi @daamien is it also working with the full version? For me it's still failing in the MASVS repo unfortunately

Sorry I forgot to update latest-ubuntu-full

It's done now

[cpholguera]

Thank you @daamien, unfortunately there's still an error, but a different one:

Hi @cpholguera

I took some time to investigate and it looks like it's a bug in the default latex template delivered with pandoc.

I have opened a ticket on the pandoc project to check it out: https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/8460

In the meantime, here's a quick workaround:

• Edit the tools\docker\latex-header.tex file:

https://github.com/OWASP/owasp-masvs/blob/master/tools/docker/latex-header.tex

• Add the following lines at the end

%% Workaround for pandoc bug #8460
%% https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/8460
\newenvironment{RTL}{\beginR}{\endR}

[cpholguera]

Thanks a lot for checking @daamien, I'll try that out!

[cpholguera]

It works, thanks again @daamien!
