latexmk exited with status 5

[Daniel Kessler]

That's the error message I get when trying to compile (e.g. with \ll).
The rest of the functionalities of the plugin work fine.

Setting is Ubuntu 10.04. `latexmk -v` gives me "latexmk, John Collins, 2 June 2004. Version 3.07a"
and on the command-line `latexmk foo.tex` works fine.

I found the bug id related to lines 60 and 61 in latexmk.vim. The -e option is not recognized by latexmk.
Commenting out these lines removes the error message.

That latexmk version is 6 years old. Are you using latexmk from texlive?

i'm using the version from the standard Ubuntu 10.04 repositories. Thanks for pointing to the fact that a more recent version exists. So there doesn't seem to be a bug in LatexBox after all, but rather a lack of update for the latexmk package in Ubuntu, which I just notified here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/latexmk/+question/123653, hoping it's the correct place ti notify it. So, sorry for reporting to a non-existing bug, and I guess anybody with the same problem getting here through google should get the latest latexmk from here: http://www.phys.psu.edu/~collins/software/latexmk-jcc/, as I will do right now.

Marking as invalid. Thank you for providing a fix (https://bugs.launchpad.net/vim-latex-box/+bug/627084/comments/1) for other users that might experience the same problem.
