David Carlisle submitted an update to the

ucs

package.

Version: 2.3 2022-08-07
License: lppl1.3

Summary description: Extended UTF-8 input encoding support for LaTeX

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Update to the ucs package and inputenc [utf8x] option
New Support address

https://github.com/LaTeX-Package-Repositories/ucs/issues

This update (By David Carlisle, with permission from the original
authors, Dominique Unruh and Wolfgang Jeltsch) makes

\usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
act like the standard utf8 option, so has no effect in most cases
as UTF-8 is the default encoding in recent LaTeX releases.

If the ucs package is explicitly loaded, the original utf8x
definitions are used, but ucs.sty and utf8x.def have been updated
to use e-tex \protected definitions to make them compatible with
Unicode support in LaTeX, notably \MakeUppercase in the June 2022 LaTeX

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

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

The package’s files themselves can be inspected at
https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/ucs/

Thanks for the upload.
