&gt; Package version: v1.1
&gt; Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/ifetex/
&gt; Summary description: Changed declaration of \ifetex
&gt; License type: lppl
&gt; 
&gt; Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
&gt; ----------------------------------------------------------------------
&gt; The declaration of \ifetex now doesn't use \newif any longer to avoid
&gt; the macros \etexfalse and \etextrue.
&gt; The definition is now local.
