New on CTAN: libertine-legacy

[CTAN Announcements]

The daemon told me yesterday:

> The following information was provided by the package's contributor.
> 
> Name of contribution: libertine-legacy
> Author's name: Bob Tennent
> Package version: 5.1.2 (2011-12-19)
> Location on CTAN: fonts/libertine-legacy/
> Summary description: Linux Libertine fonts for TeX and pdfTeX users.
> License type: gpl
> 
> Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
> From December 11, 2011, the libertine package supports only xetex and
> luatex users (opentype-format fonts). This package provides the last
> version that still supported tex and pdftex users (type 1
> fonts). Except for a small number of directory and file re-namings to
> avoid conflicting with more recent distributions, the files in this
> package are identical to those of the libertine package version 5.1.2
> distributed at CTAN before December 2011.
> 
> It is believed that this package can be installed and used as before,
> without conflicting with newer libertine packages, except that the
> latter have a "dummy" libertine.sty that should be deleted or
> avoided. Xetex and luatex users should use libertineotf.sty in the
> more recent libertine packages.
