#107 varioref

[Henri Butron]

scrartcl now has a problem with varioref : TeX capacity exceeded. This is new. The same MWE was working in March.

\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage[nospace]{varioref}
\begin{document}
Hello world!
\end{document}

See this topic on a French-speaking users' forum.

Please notice I always use an up-to-date TeX Live and lualatex.

Hoping to help. If unappropriate, my apologies: I'm not used to reporting issues. Thank you for the wonderful koma-classes.

Sorry, I'm not speaking french. The last update of KOMA-Script was in February. This issue happens after the latest update of varioref which is not a KOMA-Script package. varioref defines extrasenglish as:
\extrasenglish \def \reftextfaceafter {on the \reftextvario {facing}{next} page}\def \reftextfacebefore {on the \reftextvario {facing}{preceding} page}\def \reftextafter {on the \reftextvario {following}{next} page}\def \reftextbefore {on the \reftextvario {preceding}{previous} page}\def \reftextcurrent {on \reftextvario {this}{the current} page}\def \reftextfaraway ##1{on page~\pageref {##1}}\def \reftextpagerange ##1##2{on pages~\pageref {##1}--\pageref {##2}}\def \reftextlabelrange ##1##2{\ref {##1} to~\ref {##2}}\let \vrefformat \vrefdefaultformat \let \Vrefformat \Vrefdefaultformat \let \fullrefformat \fullrefdefaultformat \let \vrefrangeformat \vrefrangedefaultformat
So as you can see there is a recursion in the definition and running \extrasenglish loops forever. The same happens with:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{varioref}
\begin{document}
\extrasenglish
Hello world!
\end{document}

So you should report it as an issue of varioref.

Note also: KOMA-Script is currently in a consolidation phase and therefore currently I do not workaround issues that happens because of changes of third-party packages.

Reported upsteam. Waiting for response there.

[Henri Butron]

As I'm not used to bug reporting, thank you for reporting it. And for your wonderful packages.

[Markus Kohm]

The bug report here was good. Really minimal and easy to reproduce. As a user it is hard to decide where to report ist. And it is always better to report at the "wrong" place than not reporting. So: Thank you!

[Markus Kohm]

Closed. because Frank accepted it as a bug in varioref. Nothing to do in KOMA-Script.
