[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #62779] latex_renderer fails with Miktex due to 8.3 filenames

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #62779 (project octave):

Yes, `canonicalize_file_name` should return the long name. However, it returns
an empty string if the file or folder doesn't exist.

Are we sure that the folder exists at that point in time? (There is a
`sys::mkdir` a little lower in the code that is shown in your patch...)
