Hugo Gomes submitted an update to the
pgf-PeriodicTable
package.
Version: 2.1.3 2024-08-07
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Create custom periodic tables of elements
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The engine's detection mechanism (pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX or XeTeX)
has been changed to prevent erroneous detection when the packages
'hyperref' or 'bookmark' are loaded and the document is compiled
with LuaLaTeX - in this case, pgf-PeriodicTable disturbs the
selection of the document font.
Fixed an issue with the Chemical Symbol color when a non-rgb color
is used, such as cyan or yellow , which are defined in the xcolor
package using the cmyk model (when loaded without options).
