The patch and testing are appreciated. Please NMU with my thanks. Otherwise, I'll test, build and upload as soon as I can, though this may not be soon enough.
If you can read the book and your PDF reader can display its table of contents in a sidebar, then your patch is very likely good. If you can read the book but your PDF reader cannot display the table of contents in a sidebar, the sidebar is not crucial and you should still upload. (After all, the book still has a fine table of contents for the human reader to read and use. If the PDF reader cannot parse the table, too, this is no disaster.) The book purposely has no PDF hyperlinks in it. In other words, it doesn't have those blue page numbers you can click to go straight to the referenced page. Thus, if you do not see blue page numbers, this does not mean that you have done something wrong. [Recent package transitions unfortunately have made awkward what used to be a rather elegant build. At the root of the trouble is the need (a) to create a PDF from LaTeX, (b) to give the PDF a proper PDF table of contents without using PDFLaTeX, (c) to include LaTeX-nonstandard PostScript in the PDF, and (d) to do all this using special build tools, compiled from source as part of the Derivations package's build procedure. All this used to work rather nicely, and recently I have accepted well-appreciated patches to kludge the build procedure to get it through the upcoming stable release. Hopefully, this will be the last adjustment to the kludge. After the stable release, when time permits, I'll probably reform the entire build procedure, but for now the patches, and NMU if appropriate, are welcomed with thanks.] -- Thaddeus H.
