15 May 2022


      The Oberdiek Package Support Group submitted an update to the
hyperref
package.
Version number: 7.00o 2022-05-13
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Extensive support for hypertext in LaTeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The main changes are LaTeX 2020-10-01 is required as hooks are used now. A new 
interface for package and class authors to create targets for
links has been added. Package and class authors can suppress some of the 
hyperref patches if they clash with their own setup.
The full list of changes is
* added new interface for package authors to create targets for internal
      links
    * allow to suppress sectioning and footnote patches of hyperref
    * removed loading of memhfixc: memoir handles that now by itself.
    * removed an old patch for KOMA before 2001
    * removed compability code for pdftex 1.14
    * remove a test for amsmath before 1999
    * removed an since 2002 unneeded definition for subfigure
    * various patches in nameref can now be disabled by package authors
      by defining a command.
    * the experimental option localanchorname has been deprecated
    * LaTeX 2020-10-01 is required as hooks are used now.
    * 
efstepcounter no longer tests for the slide counter as no reason could be found
      for that test.
    * nameref no longer patches ifthenelse if kernel support is detected.
    * some support for references is done by tex4ht directly and has been removed from
      hyperref
    * unified reference commands, both nameref and hyperref now support
ef, pageref, Ref, 
ameref and 
ef*, pageref*, Ref*, 
ameref*
    * removed older varioref code, a varioref newer than 2019 is now needed.
    * improved support for showkeys.
    * 	heHequation is always defined (not only if the section
      counter is defined)
    * Removed the contentsline tests, no longer needed as contentsline
      has now four arguments also in latex.
    * MakeUppercase and MakeLowercase work now in bookmarks if the expl3
    support is detected.
