    Romano Giannetti submitted an update to the

    CircuiTikZ

    package.

    Version: 1.8.2 2025-07-08

    Summary description: Draw electrical networks with TikZ

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

    Another significant change for CircuitikzrCOs internals: all the text
    anchors of the components are now stable, meaning they are meaningful
    after the component has been drawn. That was the case only for part of
    the components. It *shouldn't* affect anything for standard usage, but
    according to the Ti*k*Z manual, this is rCLthe wayrCY.

    Additionally, new label positions for transistors, and a much better
    alphabetical index in the manual.

    - Stabilize all the text anchors
    - Fix text anchors for blocks `oscillator` and `gridnode`
    - Add `component text=up` or `...down` for transistor labels
    - Documentation fixes for text anchors
    - Better index entries (use *seealso*, hyperlink in every entry).
    Thanks to David Carlisle for the hint.
