Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the
etoc
package.
Version number: 1.07l
License type: lppl1.2
Summary description: Completely customisable TOCs.
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The previous release added a tocloft compatibility layer which however
broke memoir class compatibility (the memoir compatibility testing for
that release had been done before modifying the source code for tocloft
compatibility...). This is fixed here, as well as the related (but less
crippling) issue of the etoc tocvsec2 compatibility layer: nothing
special needs to be done under memoir's version of tocvsec2, contrarily
to the situation with the original package. Caveat: there still has not
been intensive testing of etoc under memoir class, so possibly some
other issues may arise at some point. Bug reports will be welcome.

Summary description: User-friendly integration of Asymptote into LaTeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The asypictureB package is an unofficial alternative to the asymptote
package for creating Asymptote pictures within a latex source file.
While it does not duplicate all the features of the official package,
it is more user-friendly in several ways. Most notably, Asymptote
errors are repackaged as LaTeX errors, making debugging less of a pain.
It also has a more robust mechanism for identifying unchanged pictures
that need not be recompiled.

Christian Schneider submitted an update to the
ionumbers
package.
Version number: v0.3.3
License type: gpl
Summary description: Restyle numbers in maths mode
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This update fixes a problem with MnSymbol (and potentially
other packages changing the font in math mode).
Ionumbers assigns macro definitions to certain characters in
math mode. Previously, the original mathcodes of these
characters were hard-coded into ionumbers and did not match
those defined by MnSymbol. For example, '-' in the input
turned into '+' in the output, if used with MnSymbol. The
update uses the mathcodes that the characters have at the
beginning of the document instead.
Thanks to Michael Sebastian Hitziger for reporting this problem.
