[tex-live] TL2016: biber 2.4 does not work with biblatex 3.4

Hi Werner,

Hmm, I don't understand what you are saying. The tlpdb of tlnet is updated on a daily basis, and describes the state of the packages in the tlnet folder on CTAN at that time.

>  catalogue-version 2.4

We would like to, but sometimes the packages are updated but the TeX Catalogue is lagging behind a bit. Then there is a skew in the versions.

If the catalogue is updated at a later stage we do *not* trigger a package update on purpose.

There is for sure, historic on CTAN out so.

All the best

Norbert
