When I inserted a box with personal information besides the portrait in moderncv with this method, the footer disappears (contained contact options). When the code from \makeatletter to \makeatother is removed, the personal information is above my portrait, and the footer appears again.

In the original CV.pdf from gloschtla, there is a footer. But when i build & view his original CV.tex in TeXstudio, his footer disappears, too.

includeheadfoot didn't help, either.

I just installed Linux Mint 18 and texlive-full. Is it possible, that not all packages are installed properly?

here my code:

\documentclass[10pt,unicode,a4paper]{moderncv}

Here the log:

Undefined control sequence. \vspace
You have requested package `moderncvheadii', but the package provides `moderncvheadii'.
You have requested package `moderncvbodyi', but the package provides `moderncvbodyi'.
You have requested package `moderncvfooti', but the package provides `moderncvfooti'.

For the completion, with the old synthax "makecvfooter" you get this confusing error:
! Undefined control sequence.\maketitle ->\recomputecvlengths \makecvfooter\newsbox ....

just replace \makecvfooter with \makecvfoot.

in moderncv v2 it's \makecvfoot.
