The LaTeX Team submitted an update to the
latex-graphics
package.
Version: 2016-06-02
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: The LaTeX standard graphics bundle
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Following the death of Sebastian Rahtz, and the retirement of
Robin Fairbairns, the LaTeX3 project have been asked to take over
maintenance of the rotating package.
This update adds the rotating package to the LaTeX graphics bundle.
In addition the pagesize handling is now normalised across drivers.
Previously the pdftex and luatex options set the page size (by
specifying (pdf)page(height|width)). Now the dvips option uses
a pagesize special to have a similar effect.
The color and graphics packages have new (no)setpagesize options
that can enable or disable this behaviour.

The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at
http://www.ctan.org/pkg/latex-graphics

set, but a package option allows this to be disabled.

previously just in the sample graphics.cfg).
