Public bug reported: I am writing a PhD thesis using LaTeX, with my citation references managed using biblatex / biber (in suporting LaTeX). Note that I am using the American Psychological Assocation (APA) citation style, which is managed by the package: biblatex-apa.
Upon upgrading to from Ubuntu 13.04 to Ubuntu 13.10, my references will no longer compile. No changes were made to them before and after upgrading. After some searching, I have found what appears to be the problem (and solution) which has been addressed upstream in Debian. See: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=709790 As I am reliant on this package to complete my dissertation, I would very much like to encourage the maintainer to apply this patch to Ubuntu 13.10. A potential work-around would be to install LaTeX directly from Texlive; however, it would be better to rely on the standard repositories. ** Affects: biblatex (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: biblatex (Debian) Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #709790 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=709790 ** Also affects: biblatex (Debian) via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=709790 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1247950 Title: biblatex: incompatible with latest biblatex-apa To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/biblatex/+bug/1247950/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
