by CTAN Announcements 19 Jan '17

19 Jan '17

John Collins submitted an update to the latexmk package. Version: 4.52 2017-01-17 License: gpl2 Summary description: Fully automated LaTeX document generation Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes for version 4.52: 1. Optimize number of calls to kpsewhich. This occasionally gives large savings in run time. 2. Fix bug that if an .aux file is deleted and then latexmk is run, the wrong number of runs of (pdf)latex was made. 3. Implement direct support for XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX. 4. For XeLaTeX, generate pdf file via xdv file and xdvipdfmx; this often gives much better run time for documents containing large graphics files. 4. Correct detection for missing graphics files with XeLaTeX. 5. Work around LuaTeX line-wrapping bug in .log file. 6. Update documentation. 7. Improvements in code and diagnostics. Changes for version 4.52b: Fix bug introduced in 4.52 that use of bibtex wasn't always detected when recorder mode is on. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/latexmk The package’s files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/latexmk/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: ctanify
by CTAN Announcements 17 Jan '17

17 Jan '17

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the ctanify package. Version number: 1.9 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Prepare a package for upload to CTAN Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ctanify is intended for developers of LaTeX packages who want to distribute their packages via the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN). Given a list of filenames, ctanify creates a tarball (a .tar.gz file) with the files laid out in CTAN's preferred structure. The tarball additionally contains a ZIP (.zip) file with copies of all files laid out in the standard TeX Directory Structure (TDS), which facilitates inclusion of the package in the TeX Live distribution of TeX. By popular demand, version 1.9 adds a --no-tds option to suppress inclusion of the ZIP file in the tarball. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/ctanify The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/ctanify ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
