Description Rastus Vernon 2016-11-27 07:46:24 UTC
Description of problem:

The version of the typearea LaTeX package (part of the texlive-koma-script Fedora package) in texlive 2016-17.20160520.fc25 is 3.20. However, 3.20 has a bug which makes the package unusable, as "Missing number, treated as zero." errors are produced unless pagesize=false is added to the document class. This is a known issue which has been fixed in version 3.21 of the typearea LaTeX package.

Essentially, the texlive-koma-script package needs to be upgraded to KOMA-Script 3.21, which is the latest version on CTAN, to fix a known bug.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2016-17.20160520.fc25


How reproducible:

Reproduction steps are available on komascript.de[1] (in German) and on the LaTeX Stack Exchange site.[2]
