Package: texlive-xetex
Version: 2012.20120611-5
Severity: normal

If I try to compile a document including \usepacakge{xeCJK}, but without
a main font command, xelatex prints this message:

*************************************************
* xeCJK warning: "no-CJKfamily"
*
* It seems that you have not declare a CJKfamily.
* If you want to use xeCJK in the right way, you should use
*
* \xeCJKmainfont[...]{...}
*
* in the preamble to declare the main CJKfamily.
*
*************************************************

But if I use the suggested command, I get:

! Undefined control sequence.
l.20 \xeCJKmainfont

The included example files don't use \xeCJKmainfont , they use
\setCJKmainfont .

At least the string "xeCJKmainfont" does not occur an more in recent
versions of xeCJK. Do you have the chance to test w/ Debian unstable? If
not, could you provide a minimal xetex input file for testing?

You're right, I'm sorry for not checking before. In jessie (texlive-xetex 2014.20141024-2), the message is better (though ideally I think it should mention the command, but that's not a packaging bug):

    *************************************************
    * xeCJK warning: "fandol"
    *
    * Fandol is being set as the default font for CJK text.
    * Please make sure it has been properly installed.
    *************************************************

Incidentally, I stumbled on another xecjk bug in wheezy (it stack-overflows if you use the fontspec option \defaultfontfeatures{Scale=MatchLowercase} ); but this, too, is already fixed in the jessie version.

Again, sorry for taking your time.
