Does not compile with recent distributions #83

Closed kemikkafa closed 2 years ago

kemikkafa commented 3 years ago

The issue seems to be due to a lack of maintenance of pdfx package. https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/605650/why-is-xmp-data-visible-in-my-documents-instead-of-metadata.

Tested on Miktex 21.7 and TexLive 2021

Is it possible to replace pdfx package dependency?

liantze commented 3 years ago

pdfx is really an important package, so hopefully this situation will be fixed soon :-( See also https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/605854

In the meantime,

Workaround 1: Compile with pdflatex-dev instead of pdflatex, because -dev hasn't yet the fix for https://github.com/latex3/latex2e/issues/605. It will still break later when -dev gets the fix too.

Workaround 2: Add a fixpdfx.sty file with code here: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/606007 And then write \RequirePackage{fixpdfx} before \documentclass[...]{altacv} (but this reverses a bugfix for a different issue https://github.com/latex3/latex2e/issues/605)

Thank you for the solutions. I have installed texlive 2020 just to be able to use the class. But that's worth the effort. Thanks for this (yet another) beautiful cv class.
