Overlapping characters between footnote number with two digits and footnote text when using footmisc

[Hugues de Lassus]

Here's a MWE with LaTeX2e, classicthesis latest version, using footmisc. footmisc itself does not cause the problem.

\documentclass[final]{book}
\usepackage{classicthesis}
\begin{document}
\footnote{Footnote with one digit}
\footnote{Footnote with one digit}
\footnote{Footnote with one digit}
\footnote{Footnote with one digit}
\footnote{Footnote with one digit}
\footnote{Footnote with one digit}
\footnote{Footnote with one digit}
\footnote{Footnote with one digit}
\footnote{Footnote with one digit}
\footnote{Footnote with two digits} % "0" and "F" may overlap here.
\end{document}

The problem comes from the negative length set for \footnotemargin with the flushmargin option. The following patch fixes the problem.

Thank you for pointing to this problem and providing a solution. Changing to the marginal option is another possibility which is a bit closer to our KOMA-approach from its appearance.

\PassOptionsToPackage{marginal}{footmisc}

The fix will be in the next release.

More progress on integrating arsclassica, fixed #154 and some other (mostly) minor things
