Captions are repeated with CVPR package

[Rasenmaeher]

I think I found a glitch where the tex4ebook conversion yields duplicate captions in the resulting ebook.

If a latex document uses the cvpr package (see below), as in this MWE:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{cvpr}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}
\title{Caption Problems}
Hello
\begin{figure}
\caption{This text should not be repeated but it is.}
\end{figure}
world.
\end{document}

the resulting ebook (created with tex4ebook main.tex -f epub3) has duplicate captions. Here is a screenshot from the calibre reader:

I think ideally only the lower caption should be shown.

Thanks in advance for any insights on a) what the cause of this might be and b) how to fix this!

% The last version of CVPR/ICCV LaTeX template had been developed
% by [email protected] and [email protected] about 15 years ago.
% That version suffered from several issues:
% 1. Authors needed several individual files: cvpr.sty,
%    cvpr_eso.sty, eso-pic.sty.
% 2. For CVPR/ICCV rebuttals, another version of cvpr.sty was
%    required.
% 3. Several warnings arose due to deprecated options.
%
% More recently, Ming-Ming Cheng ([email protected]) created
% a single style file that helps to unify review, rebuttal, and
% final versions with a class.
%
% This more recent style has been further modernized for CVPR 2022
% by Stefan Roth ([email protected]).

% =============
%
% use as
%   \documentclass[times,10pt,twocolumn]{article}
%   \usepackage[options]{cvpr}
%   \usepackage{times}
%
% "options" should be replaced by
%  * "review" for submitting a paper for review,
%  * "final" for the camera ready, and
%  * "rebuttal" for the author rebuttal.
%
% specify references as

Hi, I think the cvpr.sty file was copied incorrectly to your question, because lot of commands are missing \ before @, for example there is \newcommand{@EveryShipout@Hook}{} instead of \newcommand{\@EveryShipout@Hook}{}. Could you please upload the correct version somewhere?

[Rasenmaeher]

Hi, that is indeed the case. I checked the source of my message and the missing \ are in there, so it seems the spoiler broke something. I updated the message (see above) and also zipped it here cvpr.zip.

[michal-h21]

Hi, sorry for the late reply, I somehow missed your update. I've tried your sample and it seems to work correctly. It is possible tat it was fixed in the meantime.

Here is a screenshot from Calibre:
