Hi all,
A few comments on bibulus.sty:
1) \cite should be a robust command, so use \DeclareRobustCommand for it.
2) There's a typo (a missing t) in the error message:
%% Error messages to check whether obsolete commands are being used.
\def\bibliography#1{%
\PackageError{bibulus}{The command 'bibliography' is not to be used
with bibulus}{You have entered the command
\string\bibliography\space in your document.\MessageBreak
Use \string\prinbibliography\space instead.}}
3) \footnotecite: Needs to be done from scratch as it doesn't support
babel and babel is required by bibulus!
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[danish,frenchb]{babel}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
