[Tex/LaTex] Lots of errors in default friggeri resumé cv

cvfriggeri-cvunicode-mathxetex

I get lots of errors when compiling (XeLaTeX, from up-to-date MiKTeX 2.9 x64, TeXstudio 2.8.0, Windows 8 x64) the friggeri-cv template. Download it here: http://www.latextemplates.com/template/friggeri-resume-cv .

The errors:

  • Missing endcsname inserted
  • You can't use dimexpr in math mode. \begin{entrylist}
  • Extra endcsname. \begin{entrylist}
  • Missing font identifier. \begin{entrylist}
  • Math formula deleted: Insufficient symbol fonts. \end{entrylist}

All errors show up multiple times and I can not find any clues on their origin when looking around on the internet. The strange thing is that this CV did compile without errors in the past and I have adapted it for my personal use. My adaptation also compiled without problems.

Now, I got many errors when compiling my CV (it has been a month or so since the last compile). So I tried compiling the default template to see whether it was my bad or not: I get the same errors. It appears either the template is not working any-more, or my (Xe)LaTeX installation is broken/bugged.

I have also tried changing the fonts in the .cls file to Arial, but no luck there (I have Helvetica Neue installed, tough, and the font has worked for me before with this template).

Have there been updates to packages in the last month, making the template unusable? Or is there a problem with my PC?

Any help or thoughts are appreciated! Thanks.

There are no errors when compiling when I disable alle entrylist environments and the line containing the $\varheartsuit$.

As requested in a comment below: I can compile a pretty simple .tex file with both pdflatex and xelatex without errors, so both compilers can do their job.

Another request from the comments: the .log file containing the errors I get when running xelatex on the default Friggeri template:

@egreg posted the solution:

\RequirePackage{fixltx2e} needs to be put before \documentclass{...} until an update fixes unicode-math.

This has fixed my problem.
