 \section{Changes to packages in the \pkg{tools} category}
 
+\subsection{Modification to generation of the \file{.tex} from \pkg{fileerr}}
+
+The \pkg{fileerr} extraction has been modified to write \texttt{rename-to-empty-base.tex}
+rather than \texttt{.tex} to comply with an expected security change in texlive 2025.
+\texttt{build.lua} has been  modified to rename \texttt{rename-to-empty-base.tex} to \texttt{.tex}
+after unpacking however if using \textsf{docstrip} directly rather than using \textsf{l3build}
+or the unpacked zip file from \CTAN{}, the user must now rename the file and  install as \texttt{.tex}.
