CTAN Update: lipsum

2011-04-16 Thread CTAN Announcements
On Thu, 14 Apr 2011 Patrick Happel submitted an update to the 

  lipsum

package.

Summary description: Typesetting 150 paragraphs of lorem ipsum dummy text
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
--

Bug fix. If lipsum is used such that a new paragraph was introduced after 
typesetting a paragraph of lorem ipsum, errorneously a copy of \par as defined 
at the preamble was used (\let). Therefore, changes to \par did not take effect 
when using \lisum. This was fixed in this version.

Thanks to Ulrike Fischer and Florent Chervet for reporting.
