tabulary doesn't work with array [2024/05/23 v2.6c]

[David Carlisle]

Thanks for the report.

as is common now for smaller packages I didn't upload a .tds.zip file to
ctan, just a source zip containing

Archive:  dpctex/tabulary/tabulary-ctan.zip
  Length      Date    Time    Name
---------  ---------- -----   ----
      169  06-06-2024 13:48   tabulary/README.txt
    13946  06-06-2024 13:48   tabulary/tabulary-v010.sty
    31535  06-06-2024 13:48   tabulary/tabulary.dtx
      156  06-06-2024 13:48   tabulary/tabulary.ins
   327251  06-06-2024 13:48   tabulary/tabulary.pdf

so the texlive integration will need to copy the -v010.sty snapshot  of the
package to the latex/tabulary directory but run the .ins script to generate
tabulary.sty

Karl, if there is something I could have put in the ctan upload form to
help flag this, let me know and I'll try harder next time.
