@AlanMunn Oh. Thank you.
Aug 6, 2024 16:14
@AlanMunn Context?
Aug 4, 2024 20:52
And lintian complains if they aren't there, if I recall correctly.
Aug 4, 2024 20:51
@DavidCarlisle Yes, Debian likes man pages for programs/executables.
Aug 4, 2024 20:49
@DavidCarlisle I don't know if I would. I would at least look at them, assuming there are any. And I will look at man 5 manpath. Thank you.
Aug 4, 2024 20:46
Are the info docs different from what texdoc would show?
Aug 4, 2024 20:46
Well, relatively regularly.
Aug 4, 2024 20:45
@DavidCarlisle I have used info before, but not so much recently. I use man quite regularly.
Aug 4, 2024 20:41
But on my system both MANPATH and INFOPATH are blank. I forget what the correct thing is to do here. Also, does TeXLive actually have stuff in man and info? I don't think I've ever seen it, if so. Mostly I just use texdoc.
Aug 4, 2024 20:39
TeXLive says I should

Add /usr/local/texlive/2024/texmf-dist/doc/man to MANPATH.
Add /usr/local/texlive/2024/texmf-dist/doc/info to INFOPATH.

@DavidCarlisle OK, aligning work, but I need to break the headers manually if it is long. Which it is in this case. (Assuming I am using r, which I am.)
Aug 4, 2024 17:13
@DavidCarlisle It didn't work for me when I tried it. I could try a test example, but I'll try to align it first.
Aug 4, 2024 17:10
@DavidCarlisle I'll try that.
Aug 4, 2024 17:10
@DavidCarlisle if I have text like "foo bar" and I want " foo bar", shouldn't \phantom work?
Aug 4, 2024 17:06
I tried to add a blank space in front using \phantom, but it didn't work. But maybe it does not work with blank spaces.
Aug 4, 2024 17:04
@DavidCarlisle OK.
Aug 4, 2024 17:00
This one might be obvious, but if I have a table column which is dates, eg. 2nd July 2024, for example, is there a good way to format this so that the days and month and year line up?
Jul 12, 2024 21:34
@cfr I can't. I think they've been eaten.
Jul 12, 2024 20:28
@cfr Some things do, other things don't.
Jul 12, 2024 20:28
@cfr Oh, I see. Yes, I guess that could fall under philosophy.
Jul 12, 2024 19:41
What problem is that?
Jul 12, 2024 19:40
@cfr Oh, is it?
Jul 12, 2024 19:32
@cfr I don't understand what philosophy is about.
Jul 12, 2024 09:20
@cfr I don't see the relevance.
Jul 11, 2024 20:01
Always a first time for everything, of course.
Jul 11, 2024 20:01
@cfr That's a good point, but I've never had problems with upgrades till now.
Jul 11, 2024 19:57
@PauloCereda OK. Thank you.
Jul 11, 2024 19:54
Since it's out of date, by definition.
Jul 11, 2024 19:54
@PauloCereda I guess the larger question is whether it makes sense to do so.
Jul 11, 2024 19:53
I tried to upgrade by TL 2023 distribution, and it errored out. Is there some way I can upgrade it, or should I just switch to TL 2024?
Jun 25, 2024 10:42
@daleif Oh. Thank you.
Jun 24, 2024 19:51
enumitem itself does not seem to have any mechanism for this.

Purging mercurial and then reinstalling fixed things, but I would still like to know what that error meant. I guess the moral here is don't try to do installations when low on space.
Jul 29, 2024 17:53
And now it turns out Mercurial is broken. Wonderful.
Jul 29, 2024 17:52
I don't think I've ever seen this one before, and I don't know how to fix it. Does anyone know?
Jul 29, 2024 17:51
Because of this space issue, when I did an upgrade it errored out because it ran out of space. Now I'm seeing an error:

W: Repository is broken: mercurial-common:amd64 (= 6.8-3) has no Size information
W: Repository is broken: mercurial:amd64 (= 6.8-3) has no Size information
Jul 29, 2024 17:41
I've deleted them now, but it's weird behavior.
Jul 29, 2024 17:40
But they were using a huge amount of space, 12 GB, and my uptime is only 44 days.
Jul 29, 2024 17:40
A search suggests these are created by Google Chrome, or possibly Chromium.
Jul 29, 2024 17:39
My /tmp was filling up with files of the form .org.chromium.Chromium*
Jul 29, 2024 16:46
@StephenKitt OK. Thank you.
Jul 29, 2024 16:45
I'll post my complete script. Give me a few minutes.
Jul 29, 2024 16:45
But perhaps my files don't have newlines at the end.
Jul 29, 2024 16:45
@StephenKitt Yes, I'm using bash.
Jul 29, 2024 16:42
How can I insert a single line between the `cat` outputs of two files? I tried:

cat foo
echo '\n'
cat bar

But this inserts two lines.
Jul 21, 2024 18:55
I have not been paying attention, but have alternatives to Etherpad appeared in recent years?
Jul 19, 2024 16:31
So anyone effected by the Cloudstrike outage? Was just reading about it.
Jun 25, 2024 16:51
@jesse_b Oh, right.
Jun 25, 2024 14:18
@jesse_b I don't know what that is.
Jun 25, 2024 13:06
@JeffSchaller Yes, the TeX chat room is chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/41/tex-latex-and-friends
