Packages

Package could not be found

When using \usepackage or \RequirePackage, we check if the package exists. To do this, we check the project for use defined packages, and we check a list of all available CTAN packages. This list of CTAN packages is manually updated by us, and might be out of date.

Package is not installed

Since b0.6.9

This inspection is for TeX Live only, MiKTeX automatically installs packages on the fly. When using \usepackage or \RequirePackage, TeXiFy checks if the packages is installed. If it isn’t installed, it provides a quick fix to install the package.

Package name does not match file name

Since b0.6.10

The package name given in a \ProvidesPackage command does not match the name of the sty file the command is in. This inspection provides a quick fix to fix the package name.

Package name does not contain the correct path

Since b0.6.10

The package name given in a \ProvidesPackage command does not contain the correct path of the sty file. This package name should include the path relative to the main file where the package is used. This inspection provides a quick fix to fix the path in the package name.

Missing imports

For some common commands TeXiFy knows which package is needed to use them. A quickfix is available to add the missing \usepackage or \RequirePackage command. For more information, see Automagically import packages of common commands.

Note that if TeXiFy complains incorrectly that you did not import the package, you may need to tell TeXiFy which file is your root file, see Magic comments. It could also be that you installed TeX Live via your package manager instead of via the official installer. In general it is better (and easier for TeXiFy) to install the official distribution, see Installation.
