Nonavailability of services next Tuesday (2018-01-16)

2018-01-12 Thread CTAN Announcements

Hi,

 Deutsch kommt unten.

>From 2018-01-16 21:00 CET (that's next Tuesday evening in Europe) to
2018-01-17 09:00 CET (that's Wednesday morning in Europe) DANTE's
server comedy will be rebooted several times.

This will lead to interruption and maybe non-availability of several
services (Web-Sites for CTAN/LaTeX/DANTE, CTAN, mailing lists, etc.)
in that time span.

It's extremely unlikely that the services won't come up automatically
afterwards. Nevertheless, if that'll be the case, it might be noon
until I'll find the time to care for it.


And now the same in German:


Zwischen dem 16.01. 21:00 Uhr (d.i. nächster Dienstag abend) und dem
17.01. 09:00 Uhr (d.i. nächster Mittwoch vormittag) wird der
DANTE-Server mehrfach gebootet. Deshalb werden die Services
(Web-Server, CTAN, Mailing-Listen, Email, etc.) in dieser Zeit immer
wieder mal nicht verfügbar sein.

Sollte beim Hochfahren was schief gehen, kann es auch bis Mittwoch
mittag dauern, bis alle Services wieder laufen. Das ist aber extrem
unwahrscheinlich.


Cheers,
Joachim

CTAN update: bnumexpr

2015-10-15 Thread CTAN Announcements

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the

bnumexpr

package.

Version number: 1.2a 2015-10-14
License type: lppl1.3

Summary description: Extends eTeX’s \numexpr...\relax construct to big integers

Announcement text:
--
The package bnumexpr allows _expandable_ computations with big integers,
the four infix operators +, -, *, / (which does rounded division), the
power operators ^ or **, the factorial !, the truncated division //, and
its associated modulo /:.

For example:

\thebnumexpr (92874927979^5-3197927979^6)/30!\relax

outputs -4006240736596543944035189.

By default the underlying arithmetic macros are the ones provided by
package xintcore [1] (its release 1.2 is required).

[1] http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xint

bnumexpr has only one option _custom_ which says to not load xintcore,
and a command \bnumexprsetup to inform the package which macros to use
if not those from xintcore.

This is a breaking release: some options and commands from v1.1 are not
defined anymore (as \bnumexprsetup provides a new interface), and
documents which used them will need updating.

Version number: 1.6

Summary description: Attach arbitrary files to a PDF document

Announcement text:
--
Starting with PDF 1.3 (Adobe Acrobat 4.0), PDF files can
contain file attachments -- arbitrary files that a reader
can extract, just like attachments to an e-mail message.
The attachfile package brings this functionality to pdfLaTeX
and provides some additional features not available in
Acrobat, such as the ability to use arbitrary LaTeX code for
the file icon -- including things like \includegraphics,
tabular, and math.  Settings can be made either globally or
on a per-attachment basis.  attachfile makes it easy to
attach files and customize their appearance in the enclosing
document.

Version 1.6 of attachfile embeds only a single copy of a
file in the PDF document even if the file is attached
multiple times.

 It is a response to comments on an answer at TeX SE
 (http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/236410/) requesting sample package
 files for others to copy. I had previously assumed these were too
 trivial to be of interest, but if they would be useful, then I
 would prefer them to be generally available via CTAN.

 English date and time styles that use words for the numbers and ordinals.

 This package provides the following date and time styles:
 "en-fulltext", "en-FullText", "en-FULLTEXT"
 and the additional time style "en-Fulltext".
 (The date equivalent can be obtained through commands like \Today.)

 Unlike the base styles provided by datetime2.sty, these styles
 aren't expandable styles. This means that you can't use the
 date or time in PDF bookmarks or in the argument of certain
 commands, such as \MakeUppercase, while these styles are in use.

Announcement text:

The undolabl and the acronym packages shared some commands with the
same names and where therefore incompatible. Jan Heisswolf (ITIV at
KIT) reported this (Thanks!). Changing the macros in the undolabl
package also required changing them in the pageslts package and
providing a fallback mechanism for the old commands used in
existing .aux files. When I wanted to implement this, it turned out the
acronym package had been updated a week before (Thanks!) and fixed the
incompatibility. Now what remained to be done was just to check that no
older acronym package is used.

CTAN Update: LaTeX Kernel

2015-03-31 Thread CTAN Announcements
The LaTeX Team submitted an update to the

  LaTeX Kernel

consisting of the following packages:

  latex-base
  latex-doc
  cyrillic
  graphics
and   tools .

Version:  2015-01-01
License:  lppl1.3

Announcement text:
--

 LaTeX2e Release 2015/01/01
 ==

 This release of the LaTeX kernel and associated core tools
 features a number of improvements. A short summary is given
 below: full details of this release are given in the latest
 edition of LaTeX2e News (Issue 22).

 New approach to kernel modifications
 

 This release features a new method for incorporating changes
 into the kernel, balancing the need to provide stability with a
 requirement to fix issues and address changes taking place in
 the LaTeX landscape. The new `latexrelease` package mechanism
 means that fixes are now added directly to the kernel, with the
 possibly for the user to deactivate them

 \RequirePackage[2014/05/01]{latexrelease}

 This mechanism is also available to package authors, who should
 consult the news for more details.

 To facilitate ease-of-use of this new approach, the release
 date for the kernel has been set to a suitable memorable value.

 Extended allocation routine and additional float storage
 

 The register allocation system has been modified to recognise
 the existence of e-TeX, XeTeX and LuaTeX and make more registers
 available _via_ `\newcount`, _etc._, without the user needing to
 load the `etex package.

 With e-TeX available (the case for all TeX system releases for
 some years) a new method is made available to extend the pool
 used for float storage. This can be activated using the new
 `\extrafloats` command, which requires an argument to specify
 how many additional float slots to provide.

 Unicode engine support
 --

 The engines XeTeX and LuaTeX both natively work with Unicode
 input and have some (subtle) functionality differences from
 pdfTeX. This has led to the additional of a range of patches
 being applied in the process of building the LaTeX2e format with
 these engines. In this release, the kernel sources are updated
 such that these patches should no longer be required.

 Most notably, the new file `unicode-letters.def` now provides a
 full set of Unicode-based assignments for `\catcode`, `\uccode`
 and so on. This means that with with Unicode engines the assumed
 font encoding is Unicode rather than `T1`.

 TeX system builders have already been appraised of these changes
 and suggested `.ini` files have been circulated by the team. To
 aid in the use of this work as widely as possible,
 `unicode-letters.def` is designed to be usable with formats
 other than LaTeX2e and act as a drop-in replacement for
 `unicode-letters.tex` for both XeTeX and LuaTeX.

 Building for release
 

 The team have moved to a new script system for creating
 releases, [l3build](http://ctan.org/pkg/l3build). For users, the
 two key benefits of this move are that we now provide
 hyperlinked PDF documentation and TDS-style zip files for the
 entire release.

Fixes to README

1.08a
\etocname, \etocnumber and \etocpage are now the robust variants of
\etocthelinkedname, \etocthelinkednumber and \etocthelinkedpage. This
should arguably have been done since the addition of the latter to etoc
with v1.07f [2013/03/07]. The earlier \etocname etc... contained the
hyperlink destination only in an unexpanded form.

The documentation has a brand new title page and a new section _The TOC
as a TikZ mind map_ both illustrating further uses of etoc to display
tables of contents as trees in an automatic manner.

Also, etoc.tds.zip uses the `latex` destination repertories, not the
`generic` ones as by mistake with recent release 1.08.

fontspec

Version number: 2.4c
License type: lppl1.3

Summary description: Advanced font selection in XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX.

Announcement text:
--
A few bugs that were long overdue for fixing -- apologies for the delay.

Change history
--

- v2.4c (2015/03/14)

* v2.4b was never released, sorry!
* This time *really* fix \@fnsymbol and avoid overwriting it if
  already fixed.
* Fix "Renderer=Graphite" (off-by-one error).
* Fix some edge cases for \aliasfontfeature.

- v2.4b (2014/08/23)

* Improve backwards compatibility w.r.t. recent argument order
  change; specifically, if an optional argument is presented before
  the font name then avoid looking for one afterwards.
* Fix \@fnsymbol; it was defined as a \protected macro, where in
  fact its internal text-or-math switch needed to be instead.
* No longer lowercase fontnames internally; this fixes a bug with
  loading mixed-case ".fontspec" files.
* Fixed some documentation typos/inconsistencies related to recent
  changes.

Announcement text:

 This is cybercic, which is used in concert with the cyber package to
 make documents with annotations of compliance with cybersecurity
 requirements. "cic" stands for Controls in Contents, and when you
 include this package, some notations of compliance are added to
 section names as seen in the table of contents of the final document.

 It also makes your document more brittle in unexpected ways: for
 example, when you use cybercic in the same document as hyperref, you
 cannot use any formatting in your section titles.
 So don't use cybercic unless you need to.

Long Silence of CTAN-Ann

2015-03-29 Thread CTAN Announcements
Faithful readers of the CTAN-Ann messages may have noticed the
sudden disruption of the service about two and a half weeks ago.

This was not for lack of noteworthy submissions, nor had
the CTAN team gone on a collective holiday or on strike.
What had in fact befallen us was the -- gradual -- loss
of our second "main host" at Cambridge.

As a matter of fact we had been suspecting for some time that
this host was running more or less unattended, but on Thu
March 12 it definitely ceased to pick up the packages that
had been newly installed or updated on the server in Germany.

In consequence, all the mirrors (http://dante.ctan.org/mirmon/)
that had up to then obtained their new material via tex.ac.uk
went out of sync.

Still hoping that things might arrange themselves by themselves
within a few days, we did not take any immediate action except
trying -- in vain -- to reach somebody in charge at Cambridge.

We also stopped sending out CTAN-Ann messages, so that people
should not be tempted to go looking for new packages on stale
mirrors,  and tried to contact mirror admins, asking them to
switch from tex.ac.uk to the German server.
As one can see on http://dante.ctan.org/mirmon/, these messages
still seem not to have reached all the persons concerned,
although the situation has improved a little.

Luckily, TeX Live was not affected by this problem, as they
are fetching their packages from the server in Germany.

We have now finally given up hope that the Cambridge server
will ever re-enter into reliable service again.  We have
therefore taken the necessary measures to keep up the service
on our own.

In particular, we will post in the course of the day the
40 messages kept back during the past weeks and then
resume CTAN-Announcements as usual.

Thanks for your patience!

  with the opening for example in the first argument of \etocsettocstyle
  and the closing in its second argument.

  It is mandatory for such uses to issue \etocglobaldefs which tells
  etoc to proceed globally for certain definitions. This is also useful
  in the context of the inline environments of package enumitem.

  On this occasion, various old parts of the code have been improved.

New on CTAN: boxedminipage2e

2015-03-11 Thread CTAN Announcements
Scott Pakin submitted the

boxedminipage2e

package.

Version number: 1.0
License type: lppl1.3

Summary description: Framed minipages of a specified total width (text
and frame combined)

Announcement text:
--


The boxedminipage2e package is a very simple package that essentially
just wraps a minipage within an \fbox.  However, while
\fbox{\begin{minipage}{\linewidth}...\end{minipage}} juts out into the
margin, \begin{boxedminipage}...\end{boxedminipage} does not.  Instead,
it subtracts the frame's dimensions from the specified dimensions of
the minipage before typesetting the minipage.
