Erik Nijenhuis submitted an update to the
lua-placeholders
package.
Version number: 2.0.2 2026-05-19
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Specifying placeholders for demonstration purposes
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Bugs fixes:
- Fixed "Incomplete \ifx" when \loadrecipe was called more than once
with recipes that declared the same bool key.
- Fixed namespace.parse_filename returning the wrong segment for paths
whose parent directory contained a dot (e.g. ~/texmf.d/<dir>/x.yaml
resolved to "texmf" instead of "x").
- \loadrecipe now raises an error when a second call resolves to a
namespace name that already has a recipe loaded, instead of silently
overwriting it

Hendrik G Seliger submitted an update to the
texlive-dummy-fedora
package.
Version number: 2026-05-19
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Dummy TeX Live RPM for use with Fedora and similar
distributions
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Added all provisions in Fedora 44 provided by tex-cjw, tex-preview and all
texlive\* packages, sorted and made unique. The list is now longer, should stop
F44 reliably from installing anything related to texlive (and probably a lot too
much, but if anyone find something that should **not** be in this dummy, please
let me know). The sorting removed any comments from the list of Provides:, but
that should be no real problem.

v2.2.0: Core Stabilization and Modernization
These updates significantly harden the package's internal engine against edge-case bugs and conflicts, with no changes to the user-facing API. Key stability improvements include:
Prevented Register Collisions: Migrated from shared TeX scratch registers to isolated expl3 namespace variables to prevent conflicts with other packages.
Eliminated Synchronization Risks: Deduplicated redundant rendering logic for boxes and rules to prevent inconsistent states.
Optimized I/O & Robustness: Streamlined .aux file writes and fully transitioned legacy TeX primitives to the modern, stable expl3 framework.
