pkgloader is not finding l3regex












0















I would like to try a package which seems interesting, but it some dependencies are not satisfied.



Here is my minimal example:



documentclass{article}

usepackage{pkgloader}
LoadPackagesNow

begin{document}
pckloader trial
end{document}


And I get the following error: ! LaTeX Error: File 'l3regex.sty' not found.. Therefore, I tried to update my distribution with the linux commands



tlmgr update --self
tlmgr update --all


But the package l3regex is still not foundable. Plus, my computer is not lying since l3regex.sty is not in my folder /texmf-dist/tex/latex/*.



So, is it something normal ? How can I workaround this problem ?

  • Write the package author, he should correct the package - l3regex is now part of expl3 and should no longer be loaded separately.

Stand-alone l3regex was folded into the expl3 core some time ago. We've now withdrawn the 'stub' l3regex.sty file, so pkgloader needs to be updated. For the present, you could add



usepackage{expl3}
expandafterdefcsname ver@l3regex.styendcsname{}


before trying to load pkgloader to 'fool it' into thinking l3regex is loaded as a separate file.

    That won't help. The package has more expl3 problems, e.g. quite a lot ! LaTeX3 Error: Variant form 'nncn'.
