Subject: tex4ht: oolatex should fails when it encounters errors

Date: Sat, 07 Nov 2009 21:23:36 +0100

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: tex4ht
Version: 20090611-1+b1
Severity: normal

Hi there!

I found that in two occasions oolatex exits with error code 0 even if
the OpenDocument Format file produced is not correct, because previous
errors occurred:

  http://bugs.debian.org/554995 (JRE not installed)
  http://bugs.debian.org/554998 (problems with math mode)

IMHO this behavior is a bug, since there is no way to know if the
resulting ODF is OK without opening it.  Instead, oolatex should stop as
soon as it encounters the first error.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca

oolatex has been removed from Debian a few years ago, hence I close that
bug. If you think the issue is still in one of the successors (mk4ht,
htlatex) let us know.

This bug is still valid for mk4ht at least in oolatex mode. Reopening.
