Hello<br><br>I think I've found a bug in bibtex.<br><br>It seems it only searches for .aux files in the current directory instead<br>of searching in the root aux file directory. (I use latex -output-directory<br>to place .aux files in ./output/)
<br><br>$ bibtex output/shuttle<br>This is BibTeX, Version 0.99c (Web2C 7.5.4)<br>The top-level auxiliary file: output/shuttle.aux<br>I couldn't open auxiliary file introduction.aux<br>---line 6 of file output/shuttle.aux
<br> : \@input{introduction.aux<br> : }<br>I'm skipping whatever remains of this command<br>The style file: alpha.bst<br>I found no \citation commands---while reading file output/shuttle.aux<br>Database file #1: tex/lit.bib

shuttle.aux<br>Warning--I didn't find a database entry for "vazirani"<br>(There were 2 error messages) <br><br>As can be seen, it wouldn't help to change directory, as the<br>relative path to "lit.bib" then would be wrong.
<br><br>I'm sorry if this isn't a bug :)<br><br>- Lasse<br>
