packages and styles with Latex #55

Closed MariellePetitDoche closed 10 years ago

Each author of latex files add his own package. this gives troubles if anybody else will modify and check the modifications.

How can we manage to share information on the package used in each documents ?

Can we create a subdirectory close to the latex template with the used packaged (at least the open source one) or the way to found them ?

JonasHelming commented 11 years ago

What exactly do you mean by "package" ?

MariellePetitDoche commented 11 years ago

all the specific elements added by a \usepackage{...} command at the beginning of a main latex document.

Some are linked to a specific language, some to draw picture or gantt, some to manage hyperlink, some to manage specific French or German characters,... And some are sometimes in conflict.

To facilitate exchange, I think we have to be rigorous on how to use them or to share information on them.

JonasHelming commented 11 years ago

I see, could you point me to a concrete example, where they are in conflict?

JonasHelming commented 10 years ago

Without an concrete example, we cannot fix this...

MariellePetitDoche commented 10 years ago

I fixed my specific trouble a time ago, and as noody else complained, we can close the issue.
