toc file is wrong

[Jendrik Seipp]

Hi there,

first off, thanks for providing and maintaining this package!

When I try to compile the current master (revision 0eaa74f56fec31eec8a6d889ec80cdfbde24b5f8) on Ubuntu 16.04 with pdflatex, I get the following error:

pdflatex ClassicThesis.tex 
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.16 (TeX Live 2015/Debian) (preloaded format=pdflatex)
 restricted \write18 enabled.
entering extended mode
(./ClassicThesis.tex
LaTeX2e <2016/02/01>

[...]

(./ClassicThesis.toc
! Missing } inserted.
<inserted text> 
                }
l.13 ...mallcaps {Some Kind of Manual}}{1}{part.1}

I have no idea how the extra } after "Manual" ends up there. Can you help me out, please?

Happens sometimes with outdated or clashing packages. Can't really see from the log excerpt what's going on. Try compiling some of the simpler files in Examples. It's also possible that you have an older version of classicthesis.sty installed with your latex distribution ("locate classicthesis.sty" should find it). EDIT: I'm actually pretty sure that this is due to an older version. We now write \contentsline {part}{\numberline {i}{Some Kind of Manual}}{1}{part.1} to the .toc file.

The error was due to some old intermediate files lying around in the directory. After removing them, it works fine. Sorry for the noise and thanks for your help!
