23 Feb 2022


      The LaTeX Team  submitted an update to the
hyperref
package.
Version:  7.00n 2022-02-21
License:  lppl1.3
Summary description:  Extensive support for hypertext in LaTeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This version removes a number of now unneeded patches from hyperref.
 New is a key to set the next anchor name. This can be useful to create
 manual bookmarks.
 hyperref now requires e-tex.
In detail
* added a key next-anchor to set the next anchor name.
   * added a command hyperget to retrieve anchor names.
   * a pdftex version newer than 1.10 (from 2003) is assumed
   * removed tests for numexpr/dimexpr: etex is now required
   * expand utf8 chars even if they are protected (preparation for
     changes in the format)
   * moved patches for revtex.cls to an external package
   * moved the patch for foiltex into an external package
   * removed compability code for latex2html, this is now provided
     by html.sty directly.
   * removed patch for seminar, this is now in the class itself
   * moved (basically unneeded) listings patches to external
     package
   * removed patch for titletoc, is now done by titletoc itself.
   * removed lastpage patch, is no longer used as lastpage supports
     hyperref directly.
   * removed non-e-tex version of hypercalcbp, e-tex is required
     for hyperref now, removed the now unneeded internal command
     hypercalcbpdef.
   * removed old, no longer needed fix for frenchb.ldf 2010/08/21 v2.5a
   * removed patches for spanish, they are now in spanish.ldf
   * removed hyperref-langpatches.sty, it is now empty and
     unneeded.
   * removed a fix for varioref which is no longer needed since 2019.
