    Manfred Lotz submitted an update to the

    pkgcheck

    package.

    Version number: 3.3.1 2025-12-11
    License type: apache2 mit

    Summary description: CTAN package checker

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


    ## 2025-12-11 (3.3.1)

    ### Changed

    - permission checking for scripts regarding x-bits has changed

    In pkgcheck 3.3.0 a script having the x-bit set but doesn't have a shebang causes E0002
    error message.

    Now, it will be accepted that a script with a shebang doesn't have the x-bit set.

    - permission checking for Windows command files

    If the file is a windows command file ie. a file with extension `.bat`, `.cmd`, `.ps1`, `.nsh` or `.reg`
    then we accept both 644 and 755

    Previously, 755 for a windows command file caused an E0002 error.

    - crates update

    ### Fixed

    - wrong ownership permission unequal to 7 for directories wasn't recognized
    - pdf checking: suppress unwanted warning messages
