#55674: Latex `powerdot' output not covering the entire page
------------------------+---------------------------

Component:  ports       |    Version:  2.4.2
 Keywords:  highsierra  |       Port:  texlive-latex
------------------------+---------------------------
 As the title suggests, when using the `powerdot` package to generate
 slides with latex, then, for some reason it has stopped generating output
 that covers the entire page of the output. I follow the procedure that I
 used to follow in the past; that is, `latex`, `latex`, `dvipdf` in order
 to generate the document.

 I attempted to open the dvi file with Okular at work and it appears that
 the file has an incorrect structure already there. So, my initial guess is
 that this is not an issue of the `dvipdf` command, but rather of the
 `latex` command.

 Attached a minimal file that exhibits this incorrect behavior. I am
 running MacPorts 2.4.2 on 10.13.2 mac OS. Below I indicate that the port
 is `textlive-latex` but I am not entirely sure if this is the right port
 to refer to.
