[debian-devel:15164] Re: Bug#149093: yatex does not work with xemacs21-nomule; always sets YaTeX-japan; uses "platex" by default

佐野＠浜松です。

Debian BTS 経由で yatex についての Bug report を
もらったのですが、解決策についてのヒントなどあれば
よろしくお願いします。

 (YaTeX の開発 ML に以前入ろうと思ったこともあったのだけど、
  その時はたしか、何故か Web page にアクセスできなくて参加
  方法がわからなかったような気もする。

  yatex パッケージを代わりに引き継いでメンテしてくれる、と
  いう方も募集してます。最近、使用頻度が減ってきたもので。)

 with "Bug#149093: yatex does not work with xemacs21-nomule; always sets YaTeX-japan; uses "platex" by default":

k> Package: yatex
k> Version: 1.69.2-4
k> Severity: normal
k> 
k> Three somewhat related problems are listed in this bug report:
k> 
k>    1) yatex does not work with xemacs21-nomule.  When the command
k> 
k>          yatex-mode
k> 
k>    is run, it returns the error
k> 
k>          "Cannot open load file: mule"
k> 
k>    It seems to work (mostly) fine for all other versions of xemacs21 and
k>    emacs21.
k> 
k> 
k> 
k>    Easy solution(?): make it depend on all versions of (x)emacs but this
k>    one.
k> 
k>    Better solution: fix the problem (not sure how :-(  )
k> 
k>    Note: this is probably the same problem specified by bug #92120
k> 
k>    ----------
k> 
k>    2) In yatexlib.el, line 24, the variable YaTeX-japan is always set for
k>    versions of (x)emacs greater than 20.  This means that the modeline
k>    is always in Japanese and many of the strings and command choices are
k>    Japanese specific.  This severely limits the usefulness for
k>    non-Japanese users.
k> 
k> 
k> 
k>    Easy solution: change line 24 from 
k> 
k>       (defvar YaTeX-japan (or (boundp 'NEMACS) (boundp 'MULE) YaTeX-emacs-20)
k> 
k>    to
k> 
k>       (defvar YaTeX-japan (or (boundp 'NEMACS) (boundp 'MULE))
k> 
k>    This will probably break the mode for Japanese users. :-(
k> 
k>    Better solution: find a more robust way to determine if the current
k>    system is running Japanese.  (Is this possible?)
k> 
k>    ----------
k> 
k>    3) In yatex.el, line 66, yatex defaults to using "platex", which is
k>    not included in the main Debian distribution (and is also Japanese
k>    specific, I believe).  Is this command included in the Japanese
k>    Debian distribution?  Either way, since it is not in the main
k>    distribution it would be nice if the default command was something 
k>    more general, like "latex".  (Yes, I know this is changable in a
k>    user's .emacs file.  Consider this a wishlist bug.)
k> 
k> 
k> 
k>    Easy solution: comment out line 66
k> 
k>    Better solution: ???
k> 
k>    ----------
k> 
k> I started using yatex while I was in Japan, and quite like it, but
k> because of these problems, I've found it difficult to get others to use
k> it.  Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
