Martin Gieseking submitted an update to the

                dvisvgm

package.

Version: 3.1
License: gpl3+

Summary description: Convert DVI, EPS, and PDF files to Scalable Vector Graphics format (SVG)

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

This is a small feature release that adds support for Omega Font Metric files
and implements the fallback mechanism for missing characters in OFM-based
virtual fonts proposed by Takuji Tanaka.

Furthermore, the new command-line option --currentcolor and the new special
dvisvgm:currentcolor allow for replacing a color value with CSS variable
"currentColor" which enables color changes in SVG graphics through an outer CSS
color property without having to change the SVG file itself. This can be used,
for example, to forward text and drawing colors from dynamic color schemes of a website.

dvisvgm 3.1 also fixes some issues regarding the new, mutool-based PDF handler.
Further information on this release can be found at https://dvisvgm.de.
