tikz error upgrading to texlive version (artix)

tikz error upgrading to texlive version (artix)

[Xavier B. via ntg-context]

Hi,

I use artix linux (a fork of arch with systemd alternative init systems).
During the texlive package, I get this error:

return {
 ["filename"]="/usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/generic/pgf/basiclayer/pgfcorepoints.code.tex",
 ["lastcontext"]="\n<inserted text> \n \\inaccessible \n<to be read again> \n \"\n\\pgfmath@catcodes ->\\catcode `\\==12 \\catcode `\\,=12 \\catcode `\\|=12 \\catcode `\\&=12 \\let \"\n                                                                           \\pgfmath@char@quote \n\\pgfmathparse ->\\begingroup \\pgfmath@catcodes \n                                   \\pgfmath@quickparsefalse \\ifpgfmathfloat \\let \\pgfmath@parse@next =\\pgfmathfloatparsenumber \\else \\let \\pgfmath@parse@next =\\pgfmathparse@ \\fi \\pgfmath@parse@next \n<argument> \\pgfmathparse \n               {1cm}\\ifpgfmathmathunitsdeclared \\pgf@x \\pgfmathresult mu\\relax \\else \\pgf@x \\pgfmathresult pt\\relax \\fi \n\\pgfmath@next #1#2->#2\n           \n...\nl.926 \\pgfsetxvec{\\pgfpoint{1cm}{0cm}}\n                                     ",
 ["lastluaerror"]="?",
 ["lasttexerror"]="! Missing control sequence inserted",
 ["linenumber"]=926,
 ["offset"]=10,
}

I simply run context to this file:

\usemodule[tikz]

\starttext
{\bf a} \tikz (0,0) -- (1,0);
\stoptext

My version of context is:

[xan@coronari ~]$ context --version
mtx-context     | ConTeXt Process Management 1.04
mtx-context     |
mtx-context     | main context file: /usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv
mtx-context     | current version: 2023.03.10 12:15
mtx-context     | main context file: /usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/mkxl/context.mkxl
mtx-context     | current version: 2023.03.10 12:15

My packages are:

$ pacman -Qs texlive
local/texlive-bibtexextra 2023.66579-1 (texlive-most)
    TeX Live - Additional BibTeX styles and bibliography databases
local/texlive-bin 2023.66539-1

I also posted the message in Artix mailing list [https://lists.artixlinux.org/archives/artix-general/2023-March/000977.html]


Thanks in advance,
Xavier

PS: In arch there are many AUR packages for installing minimal latest version: 

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/context-minimals-git
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/context
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/context-modules

Which one do you recomend to?

If I run the minimal context distro [https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Installation], I get this:

$ context a.tex

So, the problem is not the package or the distro, it's something more basic which causes the error.

Someone else reported this issue to the TikZ GitHub:

   https://github.com/pgf-tikz/pgf/issues/1248
   
so it's definitely not just you. There's also a suggested (temporary)
solution there. For a more permanent solution, someone will need to patch
the m-tikz.mkXX files distributed with ConTeXt.

Thanks, Max, for finding the problem. It is related to two more bugs:
https://github.com/pgf-tikz/pgf/issues/990
and 
https://github.com/pgf-tikz/pgf/issues/958

Perhaps Hans or other people could help tikz staff to do the pending and definitive solution.
It's annoying to have to put workarrounds in production documents.

There is just a glad mkiv user ;-)

Thanks another way,
Xavier

I reported that tikz is not working a few months ago, but after a few back and forth with Hans, could not get it to work. At that time, it appeared that I was the only have having issues, so I thought that I was making a mistake in how I was installing the package. 

I have reverted to using mkiv for my course notes, because I heavily use pgfplots and that is not working in LMTX. (I was also using some nice new features of metafun, and have had to resort to compiling them externally using LMTX via the filter module and compiling the main doc with MkIV).

afaik tikz should work ok, so can you make a test file?

i have little clue about tikz but shouldn't that be something

     \tikz \draw (0,0) -- (1,0);

at least that gives a line here.

\usemodule[tikz]

\starttext
   Hello World.
\stoptext

works ok here

\usemodule[tikz]

\starttext
\starttikzpicture
     \node [left color=red, right color=yellow] {Hello};
\stoptikzpicture
\stoptext

fails on

\setbox \pgfutil@tempboxa =\hbox dir
     TLT to\pgfmathresult pt{\vbox

because we don't have 'dir TLT' in luametatex (and more engines don't so 
i would expect tikz to have some abstraction for that)

Perhaps this is a good test. It's a complete example:

                        information text/.style={rounded corners,fill=red!10,inner sep=1ex} ]

        \draw[help lines,step=0.5cm] (-1.4,-1.4) grid (1.4,1.4);
        \draw (0,0) circle (1cm);                               
                \draw[->] (-1.5,0) -- (1.5,0) node[right] {$x$} coordinate(x axis);
                \draw[->] (0,-1.5) -- (0,1.5) node[above] {$y$} coordinate(y axis);
                \foreach \x/\xtext in {-1, -.5/-\frac{1}{2}, 1}                    
                        \draw[xshift=\x cm] (0pt,1pt) -- (0pt,-1pt)                
                                node[below,fill=white] {$\xtext$};
                \foreach \y/\ytext in {-1, -.5/-\frac{1}{2}, .5/\frac{1}{2}, 1}
                        \draw[yshift=\y cm] (1pt,0pt) -- (-1pt,0pt)
                                node[left,fill=white] {$\ytext$};
        \filldraw[fill=green!20,draw=green!50!black] (0,0) -- (3mm,0pt) arc(0:30:3mm);

Last time I tested, a simple \starttikzpicture \draw (0,0)--(1,0); \stoptikzpicture was failing. I'll try again with the latest version of LMTX + TikZ. 

Hans, are you using the latest version of tikz from ctan? Some of these issues are due to recent changes made in tikz. 

Aditya

It fails for me in texlive 2023. 

I don't know who changed what here, but it looks like a catcode
problem. context loads tikz files in m-tikz.mkxl with
\tikzinputfiles, and that calls \setcatcodetable\texcatcodes. After
that ~ has catcode 12 and that breaks the \let~\pdfmath@char@quote
in the pgfmathparser.code.tex file 

\begingroup
  \lccode`\~=`\"
  \lowercase{\endgroup
    \def\pgfmath@catcodes{%
      \catcode`\==12 %
      \catcode`\,=12 %
      \catcode`\|=12 %
      \catcode`\&=12 %
      \let~\pgfmath@char@quote
    }}%

Max, when I use context minimals, I get:

but when I run texlive, no errors shown:

Any hints?

The ConTeXt distribution doesn't contain any packages/modules by
default, so you'll need to install TikZ manually. I usually use the
script listed here:

   https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modules#ConTeXt_LMTX
   
But you could also install manually using the .zip file here:

   https://mirrors.ctan.org/install/graphics/pgf/base/pgf.tds.zip

I get the same error for TL2023 in Windows, with additional output:

<empty file>
Please don't say '\def cs{...}', say '\def\cs{...}'. I've inserted an
inaccessible control sequence so that your definition will be completed
without
mixing me up too badly.

pgfcorepoints.code.tex hasn't changed from TeXLive 2022.
