John Bowman submitted an update to the

asymptote

package.

Version: 2.75 2022-01-06
License: lgpl3

Summary description: 2D and 3D TeX-Aware Vector Graphics Language

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A 2D transparency bug was fixed. Vim support was improved.
To support PNG transparency, the default driver was changed
from pngalpha to png16m and the pdflatex TeX engine is used
instead of latex. A pngdriver option was added.
To support WebGL, billboard labels are enabled when configured
for offscreen rendering.
The subdivision crack work around for PRC output was removed.
Compilation without the tirpc library is supported again (but
not recommended since the V3D format requires XDR support).

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at
https://ctan.org/pkg/asymptote

The package’s files themselves can be inspected at
https://mirrors.ctan.org/graphics/asymptote/

Thanks for the upload.
