Compatibility issue between minitoc & nomencl packages?

Post by soTo »

Dear all,

I am actually experiencing some issue when compiling my tex file.

If I comment the command \printnomenclature, I can have a minitoc edited at each beginning of chapter. Uncommented it, then I still have the nomenclature appearing in the final file, but I do not have anymore my minitocs.

Below are some lines of commands in my main file:

"
\documentclass[11pt,twoside]{book}

\input{pack_def}
\begin{document}

\dominitoc
\tableofcontents

\input{mynotations}
\printnomenclature

\input{chapter1}
% and so on...
"

where the file "mynotations" are the listed symbols I use throughout the text, and the pack_def is, for the-I guess-relevant part, as follows:

"
\usepackage[french]{minitoc}
\setcounter{minitocdepth}{2}
\let\LaTeXminitoc\minitoc
\renewcommand{\minitoc}{\LaTeXminitoc \vspace{1.5em}}

\usepackage[intoc]{nomencl}
\renewcommand{\nomname}{Notations}
\makenomenclature
"

However, I did not see any incompatibility issue in the manuals of the corresponding packages.

I'd be glad if you would have any advice.

Cheers,
soTo

One add:

If I put \printnomenclature after all the \input{Chapter}'s, then everything works fine, meaning I have both the minitocs at the beginning of each chapter and the nomenclature appearing.

However, I'd like to have the nomenclature appearing before my chapters, and so the problem still remains.

Cheers

Finally, it seems that writing \mtcfixnomenclature right after \printnomenclature solves the issue!
