Ah, I assumed that getLatexName always returned a relative path. Now I understand that you where getting this assert because of the relative path. > The support/FileName class basically prohibits any non-absolute paths. Yes, it does that on purpose. > I think addPath is to add two paths, we want addName. AFAIK it does not matter in this case because name is relative. > So, what do you think of the patch below:?
