List of main changes in latexmk
From v. 3.04 to v. 3.07
Pdf files can be made by any of three methods: pdflatex, from dvi
or from postscript.
Extra command-line options -- see documentation
Improved configuration options -- see documentation
Bug fixes, etc
Improved detection of dependencies
If latexmk exits because of an error with latex, bibtex
or makeindex, then it gives a non-zero exit code.
Under MS-Windows allow wildcards in filenames.
From v. 3.07 to v. 4.01
Allow dvips, etc to put files in temporary location then move to
final location. This enables the problem to be avoided that
some viewers look for changes in a file and read a new file
before the writing of it is complete.
Ensure that an error in exectuing an rcfile results in an error
message visible to the user.
OS-specific initialization code now includes section for Mac OS-X.
Make code safe, as far as possible, for filenames containing
spaces.
Change method of detecting out-of-date-ness, etc, to examine all
files for changes. Keep a database (in a file with extension
fdb_latexmk) of the previous state of the files. The aux.bak
and idx.bak files are no longer used. The primary method of
detecting change is from the md5 checksum of a file. This deals
automatically with the vast majority of cases where there is
circular dependence of files, without needing special coding in
latexmk to know which input files to a LaTeX run are generated
from a previous run.
Hence make a much more systematic and general method for treating
dependencies.
Substituteable place holders allowed in command specifications, to
allow very general specification of commands (including multiple
commands, pipelines etc).
Extra option --dependents to list dependent files.
Support for multibib.sty, multind.sty, etc.
Support for index.sty as well as makeidx.sty.
Allow .latexmkrc as file name in project directory (as opposed to
latexmkrc).
Command-line option -e to allow execution of initialization code
from command-line invocation of latexmk.
Routines add_cus_dep, remove_cus_dep and show_cus_dep for
manipulating custom-dependency list.
Ability to specify lines to be ignored in computing md5 checksum of
a file of a particular extension. (An example would be a
comment line in an encapsulated postscript file that contains
the date and time it was created. Such lines may change without
having any consequence on the use of the file.)
Miscellaneous bug fixes, etc.
Improvements in parsing of log file
From v. 4.01 to v. 4.05
Miscellaneous bug fixes
Fix bug that -ps -pdfps runs ps2pdf before dvips
Deal with quoted filenames in log file
Correct problem with invocation of MSWin start command
-c and -C now also delete fdb_latex file
For home directory (where user's .latexmkrc is located,
when $ENV{'HOME'} does not exist, use $ENV{USERPROFILE}
(suitable for MS-Win).
Correct treatment of -e option
Fix possibility that unwrapping of lines in log_file is done
incorrectly
Correct parsing of log file
Improve diagnostics of reasons for rerun of external program.
Fix problems when using both latex and pdflatex
Configurable extensions for finding cusdep
Change to a nicer #! line
Safer use of % in placeholders in commands
From v. 4.05 to v. 4.07
In preview-continuous mode, arrange that ctrl/C used to stop the
processing loop does not automatically kill a script used to
call latexmk
Better handling of situation when a run of (pdf)latex does not
produce a dvi or pdf file, or when the opposite type of output
is produced than expected (e.g., pdf instead of dvi by latex)
Deal better with case that file is written and read by (pdf)latex
during a run
From v. 4.07 to v. 4.10
Binmode for log file under MSWin to avoid problem with ctrl/Z
written by Miktex 2.7 giving spurious end-of-file.
Deal with issues in depedency structure caused by epstopdf, which
automatically creates pdf files from eps files during run of
pdflatex.
Correct problem with determining use of custom dependencies, when
file-not found-report has extensionless filename, but
corresponding .tex file exists.
Preview-continuous mode now doesn't bomb out if there are errors
during first run of (pdf)latex. (Previously that caused the
previewer not to run even if viewed file exists.)
From v. 4.10 to v. 4.11
Corrects a long-standing bug that when the main file uses
bibtex, and uses \include for subdocuments, changes in
bibliography citations did not always trigger a rerun of bibtex.
Fixed a problem that latexmk did not detect changed aux files etc
on a small document when the run of (pdf)latex was within the
1-second granularity of filetimes.
Improved start-up times on some large documents by avoiding
unnecessary recalculations of md5 checksums.
Deals better with eps-to-pdf conversions reported by epstopdf
package.
-silent option now causes suppression of certain messages about
non-existent files
When view files are make via a temporary file (not-yet-documented
feature), delete old view file before moving the temporary file.
(To avoid reported bug in kpdf and okular.)
Corrects a problem that with an error introduced at v. 4.08 that
on finding an error in processing one file latexmk exits rather
than continuing processing other requested files. The exit code
returned by latexmk was also incorrect in this situation
From v. 4.11 to v. 4.12
Added an option not to run bibtex (to deal with situations
where a bbl file is available but not the bib file from which
it was made).
Corrected misprints in documentation.
From v. 4.12 to v. 4.13
Corrected clean_up so aux file is deleted.
Default for running bibtex: Only when .bib file exists.
Correction insertion of bbl into list of generated extensions.
From v. 4.13 to v. 4.13a
Corrected a problem that clean-up option (-C) failed to delete
certain generated files.
From v. 4.13a to v. 4.15
Change defaults on $latex_silent_switch and $pdflatex_silent_switch
to make them always TeXLive compatible.
To avoid problems with apparent source files that are incorrectly
determined from the log file: (a) Make sure md5 calc doesn't
bomb out on directory. (b) In parsing log file: if apparent
dependent file is directory, remove it from list of dependent
files.
Better diagnostics at end of run with multiple files: list
applications of latex and pdflatex that failed.
Fixed problem that with -pvc when (pdf)latex failed, latexmk kept
doing dvips, dvipdf, etc.
From v. 4.15 to v. 4.15b
Changed default location of system rc files for cygwin to include
both Unix-like and MSWindows paths.
Changed use of Digest module to use of Digest::MD5 module, to give
compatibility with the limited installation of perl shipped
with TeX Live.
From v. 4.15b to v. 4.15c
Solved problem that occasionally latexmk failed to detect a
dependent file when it analyzed a .log file. (It incorrectly
treated some lines of length 79 as being wrapped.)
From v. 4.15b to v. 4.16
Solved another problem with misparsed log files. Some versions of
pdflatex fail to preceed some warning messages by a new line.
Thus these warning messages sometimes appear to be part of a
filename.
Updated documentation to mention previously undocumented feature
about the use of temporary files in making ps and pdf files.
From v. 4.16 to v. 4.16a
Sanity check on $sleep_time. (Negative times and times between 0
and 1 are replaced by 1.)
Corrected problem under preview-continuous mode that some
previewers would not see the changed file on an NFS file
system.
From v. 4.16a to v. 4.17
Deal with bug about misparsing log file with non-space-containing
filename that is followed by a space and a message on same line.
Previously, the filename would not be detected as a dependent.
With $force_mode on, do a better job of completing processing.
Remove long-unused options -F and -F-
From v. 4.17 to v. 4.18
Only produce "Removing no-longer-needed dependent" messages
when diagnostics are on.
In analysis of log file, add test for natbib's citation-undefined
warning.
Correct misprint in documentation.
From v. 4.18 to v. 4.20
Fix problem that when bibtex finds no citations, this is treated
by bibtex as an error. Previously latexmk respected this and
did not continue processing. Now if the only bibtex error is
the finding of no citations, then latexmk now treats it as
only a warning and continues processing (by latex/pdflatex) as
appropriate.
Get .bst file in source file list for bibtex. (So an update to
the bst file provokes a rerun of the relevant programs.)
Allow clean-up to delete destination files of custom-dependencies
Configuration variable $cleanup_includes_cusdep_generated to
configure whether this is done. (Default is off, for backward
compatibility.)
Remove use of --width option on $pscmd on linux. It's no longer
needed.
Remove double quotes (if any) surrounding output filename read
from .log file, to avoid wrong diagnostic message.
Allow a more general pattern for files to clean up (when the -c,
or -C option is used). For details, see the explanation of
the $clean_ext variable in the latexmk documentation.
Options to set commands used for latex and pdflatex, as in
-latex=special_latex_replacement_command
-pdflatex=special_pdflatex_replacement_command
(This is not yet documented.)
From v. 4.20 to v. 4.21
Fix some problems with parsing quoted filenames in log file.
These prevented latexmk working correctly with latest version
of asymptote.sty.
Corrected potential bug in locating graphics files.
From v. 4.21 to v. 4.22
Support use of biber (with the biblatex package) for generating
bibliographies, with automatic selection of bibtex or biber.
From v. 4.22 to v. 4.22b
Compatibility with biber 0.7.2. (Latexmk failed to detect .bib
files used by biber 0.7.2.)
From v. 4.22b to v. 4.22c
Biber support is now compatible with MikTeX.
From v. 4.22c to v. 4.22d
Fix compatibility problem MiKTeX v. 2.8, that latexmk didn't
always detect use of makeindex.
From v. 4.22d to v. 4.22e
Fix incorrect error handling in reading initialization files.
(Sometimes an error was incorrectly detected, after which latexmk
stopped.)
From v. 4.22e to v. 4.23
Deal with problem that if maximum number of runs of (pdf)latex is
exceeded, -pvc mode infinitely repeats (pdf)latex
Fix problem that changes in generated files during run of
(pdf)latex may not be detected if the run is shorter than the
granularity of file times.
Corrections of comments and messages. Documentation improvement.
Correctly parse blg files of biber 0.8
Correct handling of errors given by rc files
Enhancements for convenient use of latexmk with Makefiles (options
-deps, -deps-out, -use-make)
-recorder option for improved detection of input and output files.
From v. 4.23 to v. 4.23a
Correct bug in detection of source files listed in .fls file
From v. 4.23a to v. 4.24
When running biber, find locations of source files when they
aren't in the current directory (by use of kpsewhich). This was
previously done for bibtex but not biber.
From v. 4.24 to v. 4.25
Fix to evade apparent cygwin bug that prevented system
rc-file from being read.
Diagnostic for unreadable rc-file.
Add deps output file to target part of dependency information
From v. 4.25 to v. 4.26
Make compatible with biber 0.9.4.
Fix some bugs in error reporting.
From v. 4.26 to v. 4.27a
Deal with problem that making of ps or pdf file via a temporary
file fails if the command making it has no %D placeholder
Add png to list of graphics extensions for pdflatex
Add -norc option that prevents auto reading of rc files.
Options -aux-directory -output-directory like those of (pdf)latex,
to set the output directories of (pdf)latex. (-aux-directory
is MiKTeX only). Corresponding configuration variables, and
placeholders for command specification.
From v. 4.27a to 4.28
Correct handling of situations where some file(s) needed by bibtex
(or biber) don't exist. Previously latexmk incorrectly stopped
with an error message instead of continuing.
From v. 4.28 to 4.28a
Correct duplicate making of view file
From v. 4.28a to 4.28c
When biber doesn't find the bib file, latexmk treats this as a
warning rather than a fatal error, so further processing
can continue normally.
Latexmk now parses correctly error messages from biber v. 0.9.7.
