+With the 1998/12/01 release of LaTeX, the packages subdirectory of the
+LaTeX distribution has been withdrawn and its contents moved.
+
+Subdirectories of the old packages directory are now available as
+follows:
+
+ amslatex/ now available from macros/latex/required/amslatex/
+ babel/ now available from macros/latex/required/babel/
+ expl3/ now available from macros/latex/exptl/project/expl3
+ graphics/ now available from macros/latex/required/graphics/
+ mfnfss/ now available from macros/latex/contrib/supported/mfnfss/
+ psnfss/ now available from macros/latex/required/psnfss/
+ tools/ now available from macros/latex/required/tools/
+
+Some rationale for these changes is given in the latest issue of LaTeX
+news (source in the distribution, but also available from
+macros/latex/doc/ltnews10.ps)
