Ulrike Fischer submitted an update to the

                luaotfload

package.

Version number: 2.96 2019-02-14
License type: gpl2

Summary description: OpenType ‘loader’ for Plain TeX and LaTeX

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------


- In version 2.95 letterspacing was broken due to a change in the 
fontloader. In version 2.96 this is now repaired. At the same time a 
number of long-standing oddities and bugs in the letterspacing has been 
corrected. This can change the output of existing documents!! See the 
documentation for more information and ways to restore the old behaviour,

- A problem with the detection of bold fonts has been corrected (issue 41, 
pull request 42).

- The fontloader has been synced with the context files from 2019-02-14.
