Jürgen Spitzmüller submitted an update to the polyglossia package. Version: 2.11 2026-07-19 License: mit lppl1.3 cc0 Summary description: An alternative to babel for XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX Announcement text:

Bug fixes * Allow again to load polyglossia at begindocument/before (#705). New Features * The languages selected in the language and other-languages keys in \DocumentMetadata are now used as main and other languages. You can suppress this with the metadata option (#699). * Support the (void) \cyr macro which is used in Russian hyperref captions. * Add the chinesecal package for typesetting dates in the traditional Chinese lunisolar calendar, together with a calendar option and a \chinesedate command for the Chinese language (LuaLaTeX only).
