I have just uploaded the archives for a new luatex release, 0.44.0.
5
There are not a lot of new features yet, but this releases fixes
6
a fair amount of bugs found in 0.43.0 (and earlier versions).
10
* libpng is now 1.2.40.
12
* hlist nodes now have a subtype to distinguish hlists generated
13
by the paragraph breaking, explicit \hbox commands, and other
14
(as-yet-undefined) sources.
16
* \pdfobj now has an extra optional keyword: 'uncompressed',
17
which forces the object to be written to the PDF in plain
18
text (see the manual for the exact details).
20
* The lua file from the luamd5 library (which provides the
21
md5.hexsuma() function) is now embedded in the executable.
25
* \latelua now works in DVI mode again.
27
* status.output_file_name could crash when used too soon.
29
* In 0.43, rules were not output at all in DVI mode.
31
* \leavevmode\penalty-10000\penalty-10000 crashed luatex.
33
* the API of margin kern nodes to lua was using the wrong
36
* A few fixes to the manual.
38
* PDF Xref stream dicts were slightly non-conformant.
40
* There was too much space between two consecutive math displays
41
(this bug was inherited from Aleph)
43
* Synctex was broken (thanks, Akira)
45
* Font mark classes were handled incorrectly by the fontloader
48
* There was a crash possible with certain types of named PDF
51
* Math delimiters and large operators in new MATH fonts no
52
longer apply the italic correction (this fixes placements
53
of super- and subscripts on such items for those fonts).
55
* The converter from lua strings to token lists (for the node
56
interface) sometimes generated invalid tokens.
58
* CFF (OpenType) fonts now listen to 'embedding="full"'. TTF
61
* Font tables with 'embedding="no"' would cause luatex to crash.
63
* \pdfobj file {} failed to find the file if there was no lua
66
* An optimization in MS Mincho caused luatex to crash.
