Well I checked all my LaTeX documents and not in one I have used the
package, so either blindfoldedly I have installed this package or it was
installed by some requires.
Since I did not used it so far I can safely ditch it, which I did, and
problem solved. Your recommendation is also Ok but too of an hassle and I
will be bitten again with another update in the future.
