pdf / svg generation issue with new pandoc #317
Comments

Are you sure this worked with older SVG images are simply not supported by LaTeX (or at least by |
|
This is an example of test with older pandoc... |
|
Don't ask me how, but it worked before... |
|
I started from Debian testing, upgraded everything except pandoc |
|
OK, I see that you are trying to build the PDF documentation of This hasn't worked for a long time, because the "badges" on the "Installation" page are (remote) SVG files. Probably in earlier versions the error was somehow ignored, but I assume it was already there. The solution would be to auto-convert SVG images to PDF. I think this is because auto-downloading SVGs and auto-converting them doesn't play well together, but I'm not sure. If you have any further ideas, please let me know. |

So, your suggestion is to just disable the above test, and live happy? because it is what I'm doing right now :) I don't think such configuration can be supported, and our builders can't download stuff from the internet. |
No, that wasn't my suggestion at all.
OK, then the build should arguably fail, because the documentation does contain a few images that are supposed to be downloaded from the internet.
It was failing before in the sense that there were some error messages in the LaTeX run, but a PDF file was created in the end. It just didn't have the SVG "badges" in it (see e.g. https://readthedocs.org/projects/nbsphinx/downloads/pdf/0.4.2/#subsection.1.1). I do want to fix this, I just haven't found a solution yet. But anyway, if there is no internet connection during LaTeX/PDF creation, this part of the tests should probably be disabled. |
|
So I looked into this a bit further, and found the culprit, see #319. However, building the docs without internet connection still doesn't work (and I'm not planning to change that). |
|
yes, I was wrong, when that testsuite runs, internet is enabled |
|
OK, great, I've just merged |
|
I think you mean #319 :) |
|
Yes indeed!
Yes, is this a problem? Or is there an alternative I should use? |
|
No problem, I'll package it for Debian and Ubuntu and use it :) |
|
Closing the issue in the meanwhile |
|
I have to reopen, for some reasons after packaging the converter, and applying your PR, I still get a failure... |
|
this is the new package I created Installing stuff in In fact now the nbsphinx build is successful, while before sphinx was complaining about missing svg2pdfconverter module So, it seems like I packaged it correctly, but something is still not working |
|
Are you sure you are using the Your error messages mention |
not at all, I'm using 0.4.2 + PR #319 :)
indeed, because after the build process, patches are unapplied, so during autopkgtest I was using the old code... sorry for the trouble, I'll fix it up |

Hello, (please ask for more information in case I missed anything).
With the new pandoc 2.5 and new ghc 8.6.5 / texlive in Debian unstable, we are hitting a test failure in pdf generation, because of "can't include svg file"
https://ci.debian.net/data/autopkgtest/unstable/amd64/n/nbsphinx/2916428/log.gz
The run test is really simple, trying to build documentation
