Date: April 17, 2013 11:37:22 AM CEST
Elie Roux submitted an update to the
luatexbase
package.
Summary description: Resource management for the LuaTeX macro programmer
License type: pd
Announcement text:
all - input luatex.sty before doing anything, as luatex.sty breaks if loaded after luatexbase mcb and loader - compatibility with Lua 5.2 (LuaTeX >= 0.74) loader - fix an important bug making the kpse lua loader never used, it should make package searching a bit faster. - dropping support for LuaTeX < 0.45. - small improvement to make x.y.lua look for x/y.lua, not x/y/lua.
This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/luatex/generic/luatexbase . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/luatexbase (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org . Please join a users group; see http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html .
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

luatexbase – Basic resource management for LuaTeX code
The LaTeX kernel (LaTeX2ε 2015/10/01 onward) builds in support for LuaTeX functionality, also available as ltluatex.tex for users of plain TeX and those with older LaTeX kernel implementations. This support is based on ideas taken from the original luatexbase package, but there are interface differences.
This ‘stub’ package provides a compatibility layer to allow existing packages to upgrade smoothly to the new support structure.
