titlesec makes fancyhdr mistreating the document class












0















MWE is pretty simple:



documentclass[twoside]{article}
%usepackage{titlesec}
usepackage{fancyhdr}
begin{document}
pagestyle{fancy}
section{tist1}
subsection{a}
newpage
subsection{b}
end{document}


On the second page, there is the subsection name on the left and the section name on the right.



Now, uncomment the titlesec import, and the behaviour changes: the section name on the left and nothing (actually, a fantom of non-existent chapter name) on the right.



It happens because titlesec redefines chapter as relax, though normally it's undefined in article class. The fancyhdr packages has a following check:



ifxchapter@undefined


It fails, and marks are defined as in classes that have chapters. I can work it around with



letchapterundefined


after usepackage{titlesec}, or by explicitly redefining sectionmark/subsectionmark after pagestyle{fancy}. But why should I? Is this a bug in titlesec, or setting chapter to relax has some purpose?



UPD:



 *File List*
article.cls 2018/09/03 v1.4i Standard LaTeX document class
size10.clo 2018/09/03 v1.4i Standard LaTeX file (size option)
titlesec.sty 2016/03/21 v2.10.2 Sectioning titles
fancyhdr.sty 2017/06/30 v3.9a Extensive control of page headers and footers

  • What versions of the packages are you using? (Put listfiles before documentclass and report the output here.) I get identical output with or without titlesec.

  • @egreg yes, the new version of fancyhdr has a f@nch@ifundefined macro which handles both undefined and relax, thanks. But anyway, is there any purpose to set chapter to relax instead of undefined in titlesec?
