On Thu, 11 Aug 2011 H.-Martin Münch submitted an update to the
pageslts
package.
Summary description: pagesLTS has been replaced by pageslts
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The mixed case filenames (ie. pagesLTS.*) have been replaced by pageslts.*.
Please make sure to uninstall the old package (with files named pagesLTS.*)
before reinstalling pageslts.
This is important on monocase operating systems like Windows, where, if
pagesLTS.sty still exists, trying to write to pageslts.sty will overwrite
pagesLTS.sty instead.
Sorry for any inconvenience.

realbox
package.
Summary description: Provides variants of common ``box''-macros which reads their content as real box and not as macro argument.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This LaTeX package uses the authors other package 'collectbox' to define
variants of common box related macros which read the content as real box and
not as macro argument. This enables the use of verbatim or other special
material as part of this content.
The provided macros simply have the same names as the original versions but
start with an upper-case letter instead.
The long-form macros, like Makebox, can also be used as environments, but
not the short-form macros, like Mbox. However, normally the long form uses
the short form anyway when no optional arguments are used.
