CTAN Update: knuth-errata
by CTAN Announcements 24 Jan '14

24 Jan '14

Karl Berry submitted an update to the knuth-errata package. Location on CTAN: systems/knuth/dist/errata/ Summary description: errata to errata for tex tuneup 2014 License type: other-free Announcement text given by the package's contributor: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Following Knuth's 2014 TeX tune-up, three small problems with the errata (not the actual updated files!) have come to light. Don asked me to disseminate the changes, which are to the files errata/errata.tex, errata/errorlog.tex, and errata/tex82.bug. ftp.cs.stanford.edu will not be updated with these fixes until his next general update, so CTAN should be considered authoritative for them. Don has returned to the land of TAOCP ... happy sojourning ...
