Longtable LaTeX package breaks pages after header

Here’s an annoying longtable bug for those of you using LaTeX for a living. Sometimes, but rarely so, a longtable will break at the oddest places when using horizontal lines (hline), including right after the header. The solution is to define a special kind of hline called “nobreakhline” and use that instead where you don’t want any page breaks.

\makeatletter \def\nobreakhline{% \multispan\LT@cols\unskip\leaders\hrule\@height\arrayrulewidth\hfill\cr \noalign{\penalty10000}} \makeatother
