Hi Paul,
Recently I found out a regression on Ubuntu 16.04 which has a buggy version
of titlesec. The bug omits section numbers in section headers. If you were
on Ubuntu 16.04, you might have noticed the regression.
In response to this regression, I tested perfbook build on some of old
TeX Live releases. There were other incompatible packages in the past.
So this series adds/improves detection of those incompatible versions.
I have tested the detection on TeX Live releases 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016.
(2016 is slightly later than the 2015/Debian of Ubuntu 16.04.)
I also updated FAQ-BUILD.txt to reflect the added checks. Now it
emphasizes upgrade of TeX Live. For those who don't like to install
the whole -fonts-extra package, the list of font packages not included
in -fonts-recommended has been completed.
I also updated FAQ-BUILD.txt to add notes on Fedora issues I found out
while I tried newly released Fedora 31. There are a few glitches and
all current Fedora releases (29--31) has a regression of Ghostscript
affecting (may be not limited to) Figures of gnuplot.
Thanks, Akira
