================================================================================
 latexmk-4.11-1.fc11 (FEDORA-2009-12588)
 A make-like utility for LaTeX files
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update fixes a number of bugs.  When an error is encountered while
processing one file, latexmk now continues processing other requested files.
The -silent option now suppresses certain warnings about missing files.  If
epstopdf is unable to convert a file because it doesn't exist, the recovery code
now deals with the situation better.  Bugs in kpdf and okular now have
workarounds.  When the bibliography is in an \include subdocument, changes to
the bibliography are now noticed and trigger new bibtex runs.  Startup times for
large files are improved by avoiding some unnecessary md5 checksum
recalculations.
