Description
Unfortunately links using HTML anchors (<a name="…"></a> do not work in the LaTeX/PDF output of bookdown. You can see the list of broken links using the command make pdf in the root folder of the repository:
Warning: LaTeX Warning: Hyper reference `page:system-configuration' on page 5 undefined
Warning: on input line 405.
…
Warning: LaTeX Warning: Hyper reference `command:Test-pfeifferl' on page 42 undefined on
Warning: input line 3969.
Warning: LaTeX Warning: There were undefined references.
Possible Fixes
- Remove links altogether
- Very bad for “reading experience” of document (a lot of scrolling)
- Use bookdown references instead of HTML anchors
- Might not work inside tables
- Remove PDF version of documentation
- Do nothing 😅 and accept that the PDF version should only be used, if you want to print the documentation
