+# LaTeX2e temporary first aid for external packages and classes during transition periods
+
+LaTeX2e kernel code that temporarily adjusts packages that are not yet
+updated and therefore fail if a new LaTeX release updates internal
+commands (which have been used in the external packages)
+
+This is stored in a separate file external to the base bundle, so that
+it can be easily updated when fixes become available without the need
+to upload a full new LaTeX2e release to CTAN.
