category:amsmath Improve error message when using amsmath after breqn #209
Comments
I'll see if the situation can be improved, I'm moderately against one package having a fixed check assuming the capabilities of another package as these sorts if checks tend to become wrong as packages change over time. One way of avoiding the error would be if breqn did \RequirePackage{amsmath} |
You are kind of right. The most elegant way would be to make sure, that
compiles without error. |
I would support auto-loading of amsmath. They are complements and generally one needs both — breqn can’t do everything.
|
@wspr you are maintaining breqn these days don't you? If so I would suggest to close here and you do just that (or at least we open an issue on breqn for this). Unfortunately, issue transfer doesn't work across. |
open issue with breqn so close here |
As documented here, if you want to use breqn and amsmath, you have to use \usepackage{amsmath} BEFORE \usepackage{breqn} or it won't work. There is nothing wrong with this constraint, but I think the error message should be clearer: If you attempt to compile
you get the error message
It would be a nice improvement if \usepackage{amsmath} would check if breqn was already imported and output a "You cannot import amsmath after breqn" - Error-message.
