ifplatform.sty error after installing MiKTeX on Ubuntu Mate 16.04
I can't get minted package to work under Ubuntu (pygments error)Undefined Control Sequence with mintedmintinline expands to a single newlineRunning TexWorks on UbuntuIssue installing minted on Windows 10Installing iopart class files on Ubuntu 16.04Biblatex 3.6 on Ubuntu 16.04 with Texlive 2016Minted package causing error failing to compileMinted package causing Error with “ifplatform.sty” and “minted.sty”Package minted Error: Missing Pygments output
I can't tell if this is Windows or *nix; you appear to be neither.
The error above is what I receive even when I try to compile something as simple as this:
documentclass[11pt]{article}
usepackage{minted}
begin{document}
Test Text
end{document}
The error is clearly caused by the minted package being included (I assume it requires ifplatform) because the documents that don't use the minted package compile fine. I've tried compiling using both pdfTeX and XeTeX (with the -shell-escape argument of course.)
This error never popped up in the past when I had some distribution of LaTeX that got installed automatically when I installed TeXmaker through apt. But I installed MiKTeX because it's a lot easier to get new packages with it. That's when this problem started.
I tried reading the documentation for ifplatform and it said something about things becoming confused if there's a nul:.tex file in the search path. I only found a null.tex but deleted it anyway and it didn't help.
I'd really appreciate any help regarding the matter, thanks in advance!
EDIT: The point I mentioned about the documentation is on page 3 of the documentation found here.

I don't see anything in the style that looks as if something miktex specific could confuse it but as I'm on windows I can't test. Make a copy of the style in a test folder and then try to find out which way the tests go by add showx in sensible places while running your document (better don't use minted but only ifplatform for this tests).

@DavidCarlisle I get the same error however the document compiles successfully if I include ifplatform instead of minted.

@UlrikeFischer I don't quite understand what you mean by " make a copy of the style" or what you want me to try doing in general actually.

copy ifplatform.sty to your actual folder. It will then be used by your document and you can change it without breaking the original. Then open this copy in your editor and try to figure out what it is doing by adding debugging messages (I often use simply showx to understand where I am).
