I am using an older TeXLive (2015) distribution, which is the default version in FreeBSD.

Thanks.

The 3-parameters variant of round must have been defined after your LaTeX version…
Can you try with the attached patch applied?

#2
Updated by Hiroto Kagotani about 7 years ago

Thank you.

Using the patch, build and install processes finished successfully.
But, the following test fails:

.../tests/ # t/tex_arithm/test.pl

[E] latex error: ! Undefined control sequence.

Can you try replacing \char_generate:nn { `e } { 12 } with \catcode`e=12 e in automultiplechoice.dtx.in? Line 3416 becomes

  \tl_replace_once:Nxn \amc_ee_tl { \catcode`e=12 e } { e }

#4
Updated by Hiroto Kagotani about 7 years ago

I get the following message by the replacement, although pdflatex itself finished successfully.

/tests # t/tex_arithm/test.pl 
[>] Installed in /tmp/lXxnYOd_4w
[E] Significant::base10 [2] : '0' should be '34'

The following is displayed by pdflatex.

#6
Updated by Alexis Bienvenüe almost 7 years ago

Can you give a try to the following patch, to be applied on hg:9592fa9f3258 for example?
Also attached is the resulting DTX and STY files.

#7
Updated by Hiroto Kagotani over 6 years ago

Thank you very much. This patch completely works with hg:9592fa9f3258.

Now, when I try hg:7cf54b35be4c, I get another error:

! Undefined control sequence.
l.2147 \sys_if_engine_luatex:TF

Thanks a lot.

#8
Updated by Hiroto Kagotani over 6 years ago

Sorry, I found the repository was moved to GitLab.com and \sys_if_engine_luatex:TF was removed.
I'll test it later.
Thanks.

#9
Updated by Hiroto Kagotani over 6 years ago

The latest commit git:c96ff32 works completely. (I don't know how to refer to a gitlab commit)
Thank you very much!

#10
Updated by Alexis Bienvenüe over 6 years ago

Good. Thanks for testing!

(I don't know how to refer to a gitlab commit)

just type git:c96ff32 and the link will appear.
