Pierre Senellart submitted an update to the
apxproof
package.
Version: 1.5.0 2026-08-25
License: lppl1.3
Summary description: Proofs in appendix
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.5.0 of apxproof adds SyncTeX support.
Appendix material and repeated theorems are now typeset from the source files
instead of being copied to an auxiliary file, so that editors and PDF viewers
point at the source lines that produced them, in the appendix as well as in the
main text. This happens by default whenever the engine is run with SyncTeX
output enabled; the new "synctex" option forces it on or off. With pdfTeX and
XeTeX, the apxproof-synctex script now distributed with the package additionally
makes forward search find appendix material.
The optional argument that cleveref adds to \label is now supported within
repeated material, as are the \zlabel and \zcref commands of zref-clever.
A LaTeXML binding, apxproof.sty.ltxml, is now distributed and documented: it
converts documents using apxproof to HTML with their proofs deferred, their
theorems repeated and their appendix bibliography preserved.

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
bundledoc
package.
Version: 3.7
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Bundle together all the files needed to build a LaTeX document
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
bundledoc is a post-processor for the snapshot package that bundles together all the classes, packages, and files needed to build a given LaTeX document. It reads the .dep file that snapshot produces, finds each of the files mentioned therein, and archives them into a single .tar.gz (or .zip, or whatever) file, suitable for moving across systems, transmitting to a colleague, etc.
Version 3.7 of bundledoc includes a modification by Paul van der Hulst to make the code more robust to special characters in filenames when used under Microsoft Windows.

mousik
package.
Version: 0.1
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Manual music notation with TikZ
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The mousik package renders music scores with LaTeX. It is based on the TikZ
package, and the scores are treated as drawings. The package does not try to
understand the music. It provides the basic layout needed to render the score,
while allowing the user to customize it further. Short commands are provided for
notes, rests, slurs, accidentals, articulations, ornaments, etc., with the
option to adjust their position and shape directly. This makes it most useful
for short musical examples, for instance in textbooks, lecture notes, and
articles. There are several other ways to write music with LaTeX, but they
generally require additional programs, notation languages, or processing steps.
In comparison, mousik is meant to be as simple as possible, with straightforward
commands and the music written directly in the LaTeX source.
