Subject: sbcl: FTBFS due to TeX error

Date: Fri, 19 Feb 2016 21:10:20 -0500

Source: sbcl
Version: 2:1.3.1-1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Hi,

I just merged sbcl 2:1.3.1-1 into Ubuntu (we have a simple chmod change in
debian/rules), and it failed to build on all architectures [1]. I verified
that this issue affects Debian unstable as well by building it in a chroot.

It appears to be due to a TeX issue during the build.

Thanks,
Logan Rosen

Seems to be related to texinfo 6.0.0 -> 6.1.0

| .texinfo:3: TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [text input levels=15].

Upstream has decided this is a problem in texinfo .. can I have your
input on this issue?

Which version of texinfo? I have uploaded several fixes already,
the latest is 6.1.0.dfsg.1-5

> https://bugs.launchpad.net/sbcl/+bug/1549892

The bug was reported on 02-26, the last fixed upload was 03-05.

Can you please confirm with the sbcl people whether this is still
a problem or not.

Thanks.

apt-get source sbcl and build is enough to reproduce?

Hi Gavin, dear all,

(please keep cc)

Another problem with 6.1 has popped up, not being really
Debian specific. It is in the sources of sbcl (common lisp
interpreter).

I reduced the problem to the following minimal not-working
example:

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
\input texinfo   @c -*-texinfo-*-

}
\def\lw#1{\leavevmode\dashp{#1}\ifdash#1\else\hbox{#1}\fi}
@end tex
@end iftex

@macro lw{word}

\\lw{\word\}%
@end tex
@end macro

I did run the test with the version in Debian, as well as with the
latest code in svn (texinfo [version 2016-03-06.18]).

I also confirmed that with the version from 6.0 it works:

That's what I did in a clean sid chroot yesterday. You need to actually
run the build as some input files to the manual get generated during
build though.

Why not use a different name for the \lw macro defined in the @tex
block, so it isn't used in its own definition?  That's the cause of
the problem. If I remember correctly, the TeX implementation had a way
that the previous definition of a macro could be used in the
definition of a macro, but I must have broken or removed it.  I expect
that's why this code used to work. As far as I know, this was never
implemented in makeinfo. (This didn't apply for @rmacro, either.) In
this context @lw and \lw are the same thing and it would be a
significant complication to make them different, and it doesn't seem
necessary to make this work.

Ok, I tried your  suggestion, but that again breaks:

code >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
\input texinfo   @c -*-texinfo-*-

@iftex
@tex
\def\aaa#1{Hello #1}
@end tex
@end iftex

@macro bbb{word}

@bbb{World}

@bye

l.15 @bbb{World}

tested with latest texinfo.tex


The problem goes away when the I use
	@macro bbb{word}
	\\aaa{\word\}
	@end macro
(without the @tex ...@end tex)

Is this just an incorrect usage of macro definitions and @tex
in the original sources, that "just happened" to work till 6.0,
or is there something else behind?

Thanks

With this change sbcl does build on my system.

I've checked and using \gdef instead of \def works, because the
definition took place within a TeX group:

\input texinfo   @c -*-texinfo-*-

@iftex
@tex
\gdef\aaa#1{Hello #1}
@end tex
@end iftex

@macro bbb{word}
@tex
\\aaa{\word\}
@end tex
@end macro

@bbb{World}

@bye

I don't know why the original code used to work, because \gdef wasn't
used there either.

There's nothing else to it as far as I can tell. As far as I know,
this usage has never been documented or encouraged. It appears to be a
recursive definition of a macro which actually uses a definition from
elsewhere.

Attached is a second version which is a bit simpler, following
the advice of Gavin to use \gdef here.

Description:
 sbcl       - Common Lisp compiler and development system
 sbcl-doc   - Documentation for Steel Bank Common Lisp
 sbcl-source - Source code files for SBCL
Closes: 815205
Changes:
 sbcl (2:1.3.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Patch texinfo manual for new texinfo (Closes: #815205). Thanks to
     Norbert Preining for the patch
   * New upstream release
     changes in sbcl-1.3.3 relative to sbcl-1.3.2:
     * enhancement: warn about argument mismatch for functions passed as
       arguments to other functions (e.g. REDUCE, MAP) at compile-time.
     * optimization: functions accepting other functions (e.g. REDUCE, FIND) can
       now be constant-folded if all function arguments are declared as foldable.
     * optimization: improved logical operations on integers of unknown type.
     * bug fix: exception handling no longer leaks memory on OS X. (lp#326238)
     changes in sbcl-1.3.2 relative to sbcl-1.3.1:
     * enhancement: {READ,WRITE}-SEQUENCE are much faster for some combinations
       of short sequences and stream types
     * enhancement: MAKE-LIST's result can be stack-allocated on x86-64
     * bug fix: WRITE-SEQUENCE no longer fails to write lists containing integers
       to bivalent streams
     * bug fix: LOGTEST (and hence ODDP) no longer conses when given fixnum
       arguments and small bit positions.  (lp#1277690)
     * bug fix: READ-FROM-STRING compiler-macro does not permute its arguments
     * bug fix: DEFUN of a function name that collides with a system-generated
       structure accessor does not confuse the runtime. (lp#540063)
     * bug fix: heap corruption from miscompiled RESTART-BIND. (lp#1530390)

Message #95 received at 815205@bugs.debian.org (full text, mbox, reply):

From: Christophe Rhodes <csr21@cantab.net>

Subject: lw / llw patch

Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2016 13:29:25 +0100

Hi,

The patch mentioned in #815205, and distributed along with 2:1.3.3-1,
does allow the TeXinfo manual to build.  Unfortunately, it ruins the
typesetting of the index in the PDF version of the manual, which now
typesets literal @llap...@phantomconcurrency (rather than interpreting
the TeX commands).

I'm not sure what's going on; I will try to find out, but if someone
more versed in TeXinfo is able to look as well, that would be helpful.
You can see what the index should look like in the document at
<http://www.sbcl.org/manual/sbcl.pdf>.

Best,

Christophe

If there are still problems could someone email me the Texinfo sources
so I can have a look?

Here is a minimal example extracted from the sbcl sources that shows
the effect:
\input texinfo   @c -*-texinfo-*-

@iftex
@macro cl{name}
{@smallertt@phantom{concurrency:}@llap{cl:}}\name\
@end macro
@end iftex

Some text

@tindex @cl{built-in-class}
foo bar baz

@printindex tp


@bye

Thanks for sending, I believe the diff below fixes it. Please let me
know whether it works. These catcode changes were there before but I
must have removed them when the expansion of Texinfo macros no longer
took place within a TeX group. They're needed for macro expansion in
index entries, as you found.

On another front:

     @iftex
     @macro cl{name}
     {@smallertt@phantom{concurrency:}@llap{cl:}}\name\
     @end macro
     @end iftex

What's inside @iftex is supposed to be valid Texinfo.
(Just like @ifinfo, etc.)  To lapse into plain/raw TeX,
@tex should be used.  That's why it exists.

(Of course, it would be a lot simpler to avoid trying to control
formatting in the first place, as that is not what Texinfo was ever
designed to do.  But I know people feel the need to do it anyway.)

(Not that I have anything against fixing the issue.  Indeed, I'm glad
Gavin could do so.)

Hi all,

> Thanks for sending, I believe the diff below fixes it. Please let me

Thanks a lot. I does fix the problem. I now get a proper sbcl.pdf
manual.

Christoph, I have already uploaded texinfo 6.1.0.dfsg.1-6, with this
version I get a good sbcl.pdf on my computer. Please also confirm.

Thanks a lot for your quick help, Gavin!
