TeX - LaTeX Asked by Opsse on May 29, 2021
I want to use the glossaries-french package, according to the documentation it is in the TEX Live package bundle:
Contained in TEX Live as glossaries-french
And I installed the packages texlive-latex-extra texlive-lang-french
in my Ubuntu. So I expect to be able to import it with usepackage{glossaries-french}
.
But I face this error message during the compilation :
LaTeX Error: File `glossaries-french.sty’ not found.
Note that I don’t have any error using only usepackage[acronym]{glossaries}
.
So I guess that I don’t understand how the LaTeX packages works or I don’t understand the documentation.
Edit
Based on comments I remove the glossaries-french
import and I check the babel
parameters, and I found what was wrong. But it’s still not the expected behaviour :
documentclass[11pt]{report}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage[english,french]{babel} % french is the main language
usepackage[acronym]{glossaries}
makeglossaries
newacronym[longplural={réseaux de neurones artificiels}]{rna}{RNA}{réseau de neurones artificiels}
begin{document}
Test acrfull : acrfull{rna}
Test acrfullpl : acrfullpl{rna}
end{document}
And if I reverse the languages in the babel
parameters I got the expected result (no s
at the end of the acronym) :
usepackage[french,english]{babel} % english is the main language
...
The result is all good, but the main language is not french anymore. Based on babel documentation :
In multilingual documents, just use a list of the required languages as package or class options. The last language is considered the main one, activated by default.
Is it a bug or I miss something?
As explained in the comments, the first issue come from the confusion between a module and a package. The module doesn't need to be imported.
The second issue is about language detection, it's necessary to give to glossaries
the good information about the language to make sure it load the appropriate language module.
The documentation says :
The glossaries package uses the tracklang package to detect document languages.
And the tracklang package explains that it can't easily detect the language only with babel
. So, in this case the solution is to add this in the document class declaration : documentclass[fr-CA,11pt]{report}
.
documentclass[fr-CA,11pt]{report}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage[english,french]{babel} % french is the main language
usepackage[acronym]{glossaries}
makeglossaries
newacronym[longplural={réseaux de neurones artificiels}]{rna}{RNA}{réseau de neurones artificiels}
begin{document}
Test acrfull : acrfull{rna}
Test acrfullpl : acrfullpl{rna}
end{document}
See this post for effect of the definition of a language for documentclass
.
