-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2026-eaa031cea4 2026-03-19 01:09:25.302253+00:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : latexmk Product : Fedora 42 Version : 4.88 Release : 1.fc42 URL : https://www.cantab.net/users/johncollins/latexmk/ Summary : A make-like utility for LaTeX files Description : Latexmk is a perl script for running LaTeX the correct number of times to resolve cross references, etc.; it also runs auxiliary programs (bibtex, makeindex if necessary, and dvips and/or a previewer as requested). It has a number of other useful capabilities, for example to start a previewer and then run latex whenever the source files are updated, so that the previewer gives an up-to-date view of the document. The script runs on both UNIX and MS-WINDOWS (95, ME, XP, etc). This script is a corrected and improved version of the original version of latexmk. Before using a previewer, read the file README.fedora. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Changes in version 4.88: Some corrections to documentation, notably for $dvipdf and $dvips_pdf_switch. Improve some messages. Miscellaneous bug corrections. Use clock time for timing reports on cygwin and msys, and not just Windows. On Linux, default command for starting previewers is xdg-open. Add lualatex-related item to @file_not_found patterns. Add -cc (continuous compile) option, equivalent to -pvc -view=none. For msys, make better setting for @rc_system_files. Avoid unnecessary extra run(s) of lualatex after font cache is updated. On Windows, change default for $dvipdf so that -dvipdf works on Windows. Prevent loss of memory of state of custom dependencies that occured after a run of latex that ended early because of an error: When custom dependencies were applied to files generated during a run of latex, the memory loss would result in much excessive invocation of custom dependencies. Update nomenclature_latexmkrc. Prevent loss of memory of state of cus_deps and their uses after a run of *latex that gives an error. Previously, after a run is aborted early because of a syntax error (etc) and a second run is done after file(s) are corrected, sometimes the loss of memory would cause unnecessary (and sometimes very time consuming) extra runs of cus_deps. Correct statement of -bibtex* default in on-line help. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Tue Mar 10 2026 Jerry James <[email protected]> - 4.88-1 - Version 4.88 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #2446018 - latexmk-488 is available https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2446018 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
