package.
Version number: 2.9 2018-09-24
License type: gpl2
Summary description: OpenType ‘loader’ for Plain TeX and LaTeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is version 2.9. of the luaotfload package.
On the one side there is not very much new in this version: The native components of Luaotfload are nearly unchanged. A
few bugs have been corrected, the various files lists which loads the components of the font loader have been cleaned
up.
On the other side there is a lot new:
* The fontloader files imported from context have been updated to the current version.
This was necessary to make Luaotfload compatible with the coming luatex 1.08/1.09. Compared to the previous version
from february 2017 quite a number of things have changed. Most importantly the handling of arabic fonts has greatly
improved. But this also means that changes in the output are possible.
* The update of the fontloader files also required an update of the Lualibs package. This Luaotfload version needs
version 2.6 of Lualibs.
* As the current maintainer wasn't available and it was urgent to get a Luaotfload compatible with luatex 1.08/1.09
maintenance has been transferred to Ulrike Fischer and Marcel Krüger. The package is currently maintained and
developed at https://github.com/u-fischer/luaotfload (but this will probably change in the near feature). Issues
should be reported there. ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Announcement text:

#*Fixed*
* there was a bug if the field `eventdatelanguage` wasn’t defined [see issue no. 145](https://github.com/LukasCBossert/biblatex-archaeologie/issues/145)
* if the field `volume` doesn’t have an INT it won’t proceed with it as Roman numeral
* somehow the field `edition` was missing for `references`, fixed it.
* a mysterious space in the name part, got rid of it
* missing space before `volumes`, added a space
#*Changed*
* BIG change: all files are generated from the `.dtx` file. This is such a major change so we skipped some version numnbers and jumped directly to `2.4.0`.
* the fields `postnote` and `multipostnote` are formatted with `mknormrange`, that means you don’t have to type `--` to get an endash for page ranges.
