(reported by @muzimuzhi in #137, fixed in #138) - Fix the description of issue S413, which was previously "Malformed variable or constant" rather than "Malformed variable or constant _name_". (reported in #137 and #139, fixed in #140) - Reduce the range of semantic analysis issues to the smallest possible code region. (reported by @muzimuzhi in #137 and #139, fixed in #140) This is to reduce the chance of `% noqa` comments within long statements inadvertently silencing issues related to other parts of the statement. Specifically, the ranges of the following issues were narrowed from entire statements to particular parts of those statements: 1. **W401 (Unused private function) and E404 (Protected predicate function):** From the beginning of the function definition to the beginning of the function replacement text (exclusive), if any, or the whole function definition otherwise. 2. **T403 (Function variant of incompatible type) and W410 (Function variant of deprecated type):** The argument with the list of variant specifiers. 3. **E405 (Function variant for an undefined function):** The argument with the function name. 4. **E408 (Calling an undefined function):** The undefined function name. 5. **S412 (Malformed function name), S413 (Malformed variable or constant name), and S414 (Malformed quark or scan mark name):** The argument with the malformed name. 6. **W415 (Unused variable or constant), W416 (Setting an undeclared variable), E417 (Setting a variable as a constant), E418 (Setting a constant), W419 (Using an undeclared variable or constant), E420 (Locally setting a global variable), and E421 (Globally setting a local variable):** The argument with the variable or constant name. 7. **T422 (Using a variable of an incompatible type):** From the beginning of the variable/constant declaration/definition/use to the beginning of any arguments following the variable/constant names (exclusive). 8. **W423 (Unused message):** From the beginning of the message definition to the beginning of the message text (exclusive). 9. **E424 (Using an undefined message):** From the beginning of the message use to the first text argument (exclusive), if any, or the whole message use otherwise. 10. **E425 (Incorrect parameter in message text):** The incorrect parameter token. 11. **E427 (Comparison conditional without signature `:nnTF`):** The argument with the comparison conditional name. #### Warnings and errors This version of explcheck has made the following changes to the document titled [_Warnings and errors for the expl3 analysis tool_][warnings-and-errors]: - Fix the documentation of issue S413 (Malformed variable or constant name). (reported by @muzimuzhi in #137 and #139, fixed in #140) The module name is mandatory in the variable and constant name, as documented in Section 3.2 (Formal naming syntax) of the document titled [_The `expl3` package and LaTeX3 programming_][expl3]. - Change the description of issue E425 from "Incorrect parameters in message text" to "Incorrect parameter in message text". (#140) [expl3]: https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/required/l3kernel/expl3.pdf [warnings-and-errors]: https://github.com/witiko/expltools/releases/download/latest/warnings-and-e… #### Continuous integration This version of explcheck has made the following changes to our continuous integration: - Generate the file `explcheck-latex3.lua` from the files `l3obsolete.txt` and `l3prefixes.csv` in the package `l3kernel-dev` rather than `l3kernel`.

Lars Madsen submitted an update to the memoir package. Version: 3.8.4 2025-10-02 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Typeset fiction, non-fiction and mathematical books Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long overdue maintenance update. From the README Changes (2025/10/02) o memoir v3.8.4 -- bumped required kernel to 2023/06/01 -- general cleanup -- When creating \immediateaddtocontents we copy and patch \addtocontents, with 2025 kernel the second patch failed due to updated kernel code, now back in line whenever the new macro used exists -- removed reference to obsolete subfigure package, replaced with reference to subcaption. -- remembered to redefine \addtopsmarks as it was using a macro now deprecated -- fixed typo in \m@m@makecoltext that caused \enlargethispage to malfunction. Reported in https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/747571/3929 -- changed \bookrefname, \partrefname and \appendixrefname to use \bookname, \partname and \appendixname instead of being hardcoded. Suggested in private email -- marked \fref, \tref, \pref, \Aref, \Bref, \Pref, \Cref, \Sref as deprecated encouraging users to define their own version in the preamble. Too many packages these days provide referencing macros, general use classes should not. Any use of them will now give a warning, encouraging the user to define the macro in their preamble instead. -- added \settitlingpagenumbering and adjusted the titlingpage env such that inside it \thepage uses the formatting macro set via \settitlingpagenumbering (it expects a macro to format the presence of a counter). The main use is \settitlingpagenumbering{\Alph} when using hyperref in order to get rid of a duplicate destination warning caused by the titlingpage env. -- \createplainmark simplified via Expl3 -- dropped the use of the textcase package as the functionality is now in the kernels \MakeUppercase and \MakeLowercase macros. We provide \MakeTextUppercase and \MakeTextLowercase as aliases unless textcase is manually loaded by the user. Internally we reverted back to using \MakeUppercase and \MakeLowercase. -- \settocpreprocessor marked deprecated as the problem it was addes to solve (upper/lower casing toc entries), is now fixed in the \MakeUppercase and \MakeLowercase macros provided by the kernel. -- Fixed typo in \cftbookbreak -- copied a feature from book.cls where \chapter writes \chaptername/\appendixname plus number to the log. Felt like a nice debugging tool. -- replaced all uses of \phantomsection with more suitable \MakeLinkTarget's -- added suitable \MakeLinkTarget to \book, \part and \chapter when ever they are used and there is not \refstepcounter involved (aka say \chapter* or within \frontmatter). This is required on the road to supporting tagging. -- the overwriting of \@xsect changed to a patch -- fixed issues with \cftaddtitleline and cftaddnumtitleline -- Removed email addresses of issue/suggestion reporters from the sources. Seemed like an invasion of privacy to keep them from 20+ years ago. -- fixed issue with \bitwonumcaption which caused duplicate target warning when used with hyperref. -- fixed a bug in \subcaption and friends initially reported here: https://github.com/latex3/latex2e/issues/1861 Ulrikes proposed solution simplifies our code a lot, and removes a \let\label... which is a dangerous construction nowadays. As a consequence the allowed \label syntax of \label(bookmark}{key} inside \subcaption and friends has been discontinued. -- additions to \end@float and \end@dblfloat changed to cmd-before hooks. -- adjusted \subtop and \subbottom such that \label inside contents works, not just as part of subtitle. Plan to rework these two a bit more in 3.8.5 o memhfixc v1.24 -- some old code removed -- \@sbook adjusted to look more like the current hyperref version of \@spart. -- added \bookautorefname for more languages -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/memoir More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/memoir -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.
