A package has been updated on tug.ctan.org and should make its way
to your favorite mirror soon.
Thanks again,
Jim Hefferon
======================================================================
The following information was provided by the package's contributor.
Name of contribution: Algorithm2e
Author's name: Christophe Fiorio
Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/algorithm2e
Summary description: Floating algorithm environment with algorithmic
keywords (re)definition feature
License type: lppl
Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Release 3.3 is a major revision which makes the package independent from
float.sty and solves all known conflicts with other packages (with color
package for example!). Moreoever all know bugs have been removed and
also some new features added as the long awaiting auto-numbering lines
option.
Algorithm2e is an environment for writing algorithms. An algorithm is
defined as a floating object like figures. It provides macros that allow
you to create different sorts of key words, thus a set of predefined keyword
is given. You can also change the typography of the keywords. The
environment allows you to have vertical lines delimiting block of
instructions. It defines also different sort of algorithms such as
Procedure or Function allowing name of this functions to be reused in
common text or other algorithms.

algorithm2e – Floating algorithm environment with algorithmic keywords
Algorithm2e is an environment for writing algorithms. An algorithm becomes a floating object (like figure, table, etc.). The package provides macros that allow you to create different keywords, and a set of predefined key words is provided; you can change the typography of the keywords. The package allows vertical lines delimiting a block of instructions in an algorithm, and defines different sorts of algorithms such as Procedure or Function; the name of these functions may be reused in the text or in other algorithms.
