Does not work with LuaTeX #24

Open krishnakumarg1984 opened 6 years ago

krishnakumarg1984 commented 6 years ago

I am using TL2018 with the latest LuaTeX. I am getting lots of errors

(Package l3regex) This package is obsolete --- use 'expl3' instead Undefined control sequence setmainfont

etc. Is there a way to fix these?

That "etc." is important; please provide a minimal example file that reproduces the problem as well as the version information LuaTeX provides in the log file.

Hi. Many thanks for reporting this, and my apologies for taking so long to respond.

First of all, @vermiculus is right. You did not provide enough information to diagnose the problem. The setmainfont control sequence is not used by pkgloader. So a minimal example and full error log would be helpful. It could be something simple.

That said, if it is a bug in pkgloader, I probably don't have time to fix it. The fact is that I haven't used LaTeX for a number of years, and I'm too busy to actively maintain this package. It makes me sad, but such is life. :-(

Short of finding someone who'd like to take over maintenance of the package, I am happy to look at any PR you submit. If it makes sense and doesn't actually break stuff, I'll release it. But I'm afraid I won't be coding on this any time soon.
