John Collins submitted an update to the

                latexmk

package.

Version number: 4.69a 2020-04-17
License type: gpl2

Summary description: Fully automated LaTeX document generation

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

Add -E option to default command for xdvipdfmx, to match call made
  by xetex. This forces xdvipdfmx to always try to embed fonts.
Add -MSWinBackSlash -MSWinBackSlash- options (and corresponding
  configuration variable $MSWin_back_slash) to control whether
  directory separator '\' is used for filenames on command line for
  called programs under MSWin.  -MSWinBackSlash- needs to be used
  when TeXLive is used on MSWin and the TeX filename includes a
  directory component. 
When command-line-specified tex file not found, test for cusdep to
  make it, then try kpsewhich, and only if all 3 fail report an
  error.
Various minor improvements and bug fixes.
