I get strange errors with the last versions of mdframed (v 1.4) and listings (v 1.4). Here is a minimal example:

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{mdframed}
\usepackage{listings}

\begin{document}
\begin{mdframed}
\begin{lstlisting}
blah
\end{lstlisting}
bloh
\end{mdframed}
\end{document}

The error I get is

You can't use \prevdepth in horizontal mode.

which I don't really understand... Any pointer as to what is going on would be greatly appreciated.

Seems to be a bug. As a temporary workaround you can put the lstlisting within \begin{minipage}{\linewidth} ... \end{minipage}. – Peter Grill Mar 22 '12 at 21:44

Another workaround is to add the line \makeatletter\let\par\@@par\makeatother just below \end{lstlisting} (it seems that this environment doesn't reset \par to its expected value). – egreg Mar 22 '12 at 22:13
@PeterGrill: In this case the contents of listings can't be splitted. – Marco Daniel Mar 23 '12 at 12:44
@MarcoDaniel: Yep, that's why it was intended as a temporary workaround. I should have made a note of that in the original comment. – Peter Grill Mar 23 '12 at 14:58

As @egreg wrote in the comment it seems that listings changed the internal definition of \par without reseting. However based on great comments of @DavidCarliste and @egreg in the chat I fixed the problem.

Please try the new version on github.

With the new version I get 0 errors and the following result:

Thank you, that seems to fix the problem! – Olivier Mar 23 '12 at 14:27
Perhaps my answer above was too lukewarm: HUGE thanks to you for being so responsive! :-) – Olivier Mar 24 '12 at 8:41
@Olivier: No problem ;-) – Marco Daniel Mar 24 '12 at 8:43

If you comment the line no 752 in mdframed, the file is compiling:

Comment the below mentioned:

\par\unskip\nointerlineskip\hrule \@height\z@ \@width\hsize

This would break many other things. – egreg Mar 23 '12 at 12:54
