Romano Giannetti submitted an update to the

            CircuiTikZ

package.

Version: 1.8.3 2025-11-23 License: lppl gpl

Summary description: Draw electrical networks with TikZ

Announcement text:

The main highlight of this version is the fix of the oo-type sources and transformers. They used parameters different from width and height to define the shape, and the anchors were not stable (and some of them were plain wrong). It also adds several capabilities to them (anchors, additional windings, and so on). Additionally, IGT thyristors and a couple of generic shapes (AC/DC symbols) have been added.

• Add anchors, additional winding, global scale switch, and symbol rotation to the oo-type component
• Add IGCT thyristors
• Add ac/dc symbols
• Fix definition and stabilize anchors of oo- and ooo-type components.
• Fix encoding of the manual, removing some latin1 chars and converting to utf8. Why that was working is a mystery.
