Package: latex-ucs
Version: 20040307-2
Severity: normal
I haven't figured out how to file a bug upstream with the LaTeX-UCS
maintainers, as many of the information on the net seems to be outdated
as to who runs the project. So I'm filing this here in the hopes that
it can be forwarded appropriately.
Basically, when building a UTF-8 document LaTeX-UCS handles 0x229E
(\boxplus) and 0x229F (\boxminus) correctly if you use the amssymb
package, but cannot handle 0x25A2 (the box without anything inside).
The following workaround appears in all of my documents that use these
characters:
\DeclareUnicodeCharacter{9634}{$\square$}
This appears to work properly. Perhaps the UTF-8 character DB should be
updated.
