The LaTeX Team  submitted an update to the

                  hyperref

package.

Version:  7.00g 2021-02-04
License:  lppl1.3

Summary description:  Extensive support for hypertext in LaTeX

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  
 This hyperref version
     * sets unicode to true by default for all engines, so now also for pdflatex.

 It cleaned up various language patches:
     * removed patches for russian, new version is on ctan
     * removed patches for danish, dutch, finnish, portugues, usorbian,
       swedish, slovene, macedonian, ukrainian.
       This doesn't affect the output, but can give warnings in the log
       until the language files adapt their definitions.
     * removed an outdated patch for \texttilde
     * moved language patches to an extra file for easier handling
     * removed \HyPsd at BabelPatch and the related code as no longer
       needed with a current babel.
     * removed patches for ngerman/german: these are now in babel-german
     * removed patches for french, unneeded according the
       babel-french maintainer.
     * removed patches for greeknumerals, the code is now in
       babel-greek.

 Some outdated code has been removed:
     * removed outdated code to fix the first page boxlevel
     * removed outdated code to fix old ltxcmds code
     * removed outdated code to fix fancyvrb
     * removed code related to /Hid - deprecated in PDF 1.2

 The supported autoref languages have been extended
     * added norsk to autoref languages (PR 158)
     * added danish to autoref language (PR 159)
     * corrected french language (PR 160)

 Two bugs have been fixed:
     * corrected the definition of \begin/\end in \pdfstringdef
     * added Euro to encoding of form field font (issue 145)
