Description Nico Schlömer 2008-12-08 15:07:18 UTC 
hi,

when generating a latex document with doxygen, it i noticed it's actually using a4wide.sty and times.sty, which are both listed as obsolete on the latex taboos list (don't try to google it ;) ).

ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/info/l2tabu/english/l2tabuen.pdf

i didn't look too closely, but i'll try to generate more document to find other spots. -- please replace this accordingly.

cheers,
nico

When installing MikTex on Windows or latex on Ubunut Linux, "a4wide.sty" is not installed by default. Thus it would be nice if you could remove the reference - or place it in some if/else environment tu support very old latex version. Thanks.

Thanks, I'll remove the a4wide references, and replace a4wide by a4 if specified for backward compatibility.

This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.7.2. Please verify if this is indeed the case. Reopen the
bug if you think it is not fixed and please include any additional information
that you think can be relevant.
