Warnings on fresh-downloaded files

[Enrico Mensa]

I would like to report some warnings that i get every time i compile my thesis. This warnings appear also in the example file that it's given at CTAN page http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/classicthesis/ (the link "Down­load the con­tents of this pack­age in one zip archive (569.3k)").

I'm using TeXLive-2015 V271 on my iMac, and i'm using the latest release of classicthesis, the 4.2.

/usr/local/texlive/2015/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/fixltx2e.sty: Package fixltx2e Warning: fixltx2e is not required with releases after 2015(fixltx2e)                All fixes are now in the LaTeX kernel.

Thank you for your hard work.

Hi Enrico, all these have already been reported: issue 107 on fixltx2e, issue 92 on titlesec & KOMA-Script. For the former, we have to keep it in because of LaTeX distributions that haven't been updated to the newest kernel (this might take a few years), while the latter is a backward compatibility issue introduced with newest KOMA-Script classes that doesn't seem to have any effect on how classicthesis works. I think you can simply disregard these warnings,
