TeXhackse,

Guy complaining about the ragged2e package being extremly slow.

Luckily someone else was nice enough to report that bug so I was able to fix it 6 months ago and could blame that guy for not updating :P

I know most people don't do regular #TeXLive updates. But there might reasons that there were more than 1.4k updates publsihed on CTAN in 2022. So please ensure you're on the latest version before complaining.

Thanks.

LupinoArts,

@TeXhackse Valid argument. If all those updates were to be backwards compatible...

TeXhackse,

@LupinoArts Well… also had people using an obvious bug as a future and that's why no one reported it for 20 years and ofc there were complains after it was fixed …

But yes, regression tests are not used as much as they should.

@TeXhackse @LupinoArts Also Linux distros ship with quite old TeX Live. I've switched completely to using the images from IslandOfTeX tbqh. Saves the hassle of outdated deps or dealing with tl mgr.

TeXhackse,

@ljrk @LupinoArts Luckily we (at the Island) are also working on improving that, but great to hear that we can already help with the Images :)

@TeXhackse @LupinoArts Very much so! I use them all from ConTeXt/LMTX to LaTeX and it's so nice to have one streamlined installation flow :)
