When trying to run pkgloader, I get the error message, "File 'l3prop.sty' not found. \RequirePackage"

The *.sty file indeed is not on my hard drive, only the *.dtx file.

Note that I'm using TexLive 2014 pre-release.

According to
https://www.tug.org/pipermail/latex3-commits/2016-August/001050.html
\cs_new:Nn now checks that the function it defines has only 'n' or 'N' in the signature.
This breaks pkgloader.sty when trying to define __pkgloader_strip_extension:f
This is fixed by using \cs_new:Npn instead.

I am using TL2018 with the latest LuaTeX. I am getting lots of errors

(Package l3regex) This package is obsolete --- use 'expl3' instead
Undefined control sequence setmainfont

etc. Is there a way to fix these?

It would be nice to be able to output the loading order of packages to the document or an external file. This way one could avoid to so sort the packages on each run.

Trying to typeset the following throws multiple errors.

\RequirePackage{pkgloader}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{algorithm}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{float}
\LoadPackagesNow
\begin{document}
\end{document}

Here is the log.

Hi,
even though I find the idea of this project intriguing, I do not want to trust the automatic loading order. What I would like to have is a warning like:

Package Order Warning: hyperref should be loaded BEFORE amsrefs

Since you are already maintaining a (structured) list of dependencies it should be fairly easy to do this? I would be happy to help even though I currently have not a lot of time.

In our computer science template, we not only load packages, but also configure them after loading.

Example:

%for theorems, replacement for amsthm
\usepackage[amsmath,hyperref]{ntheorem}
\theorempreskipamount 2ex plus1ex minus0.5ex
\theorempostskipamount 2ex plus1ex minus0.5ex
\theoremstyle{break}
\newtheorem{definition}{Definition}[section]

When directly using \RequirePackage{pkgloader}, these commands fail as the package does not get loaded immediatly.

One possiblity is to use \LoadPackagesNow and issue all configurations afterwards. The drawback is that the usepackage commands and the configurations are then split away. My goal is to keep them together.

Therefore, I'd like to have a \ExecuteAfterPackageLoaded environment, which executes the nested commands directly after the given package is loaded.

Example:

\begin{ExecuteAfterPackageLoaded}[ntheroem]
\theorempreskipamount 2ex plus1ex minus0.5ex
\theorempostskipamount 2ex plus1ex minus0.5ex
\theoremstyle{break}
\newtheorem{definition}{Definition}[section]
\end{ExecuteAfterPackageLoaded}

The following MCE:

\RequirePackage{pkgloader}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{cleveref}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\LoadPackagesNow
\begin{document}
Foo.
\end{document}

points out some (recent, I guess) troubles:

• Package l3regex is obsolete and has been removed!
• LaTeX warning: "kernel/invalid-variant"
  • Variant form nncn invalid for base form \int_step_inline:nnnn.
  • Variant form cn invalid for base form \withargs:nnn.
  • Variant form cn invalid for base form \withargs:nnnn.
• Package fixltx2e is not required with releases after 2015.
• LaTeX Warnings:
  • You have requested document class article, but the document class provides
    article.
  • You have requested package hyperref, but the package provides hyperref.
  • You have requested package cleveref, but the package provides cleveref.
