lipsum uses an internal command of xparse which will disappear in the next latex. #19

lipsum uses an internal command of xparse:

\cs_generate_variant:Nn \__xparse_split_argument:nnn {nne}
\cs_new_eq:NN
  \__lipsum_split_argument_expanded:nne
  \__xparse_split_argument:nne

This is not allowed according to the expl3 rules: Internal commands are private to a package and can change without notice. And this what is just happening as xparse has been moved to the latex kernel.

And so currently all my documents using lipsum break when I use the latex development version with 

! Undefined control sequence.
<inserted text> \__xparse_split_argument:nnn 
                                             {1}{-}{1}
l.15 \end
         {document}

Probably (but untested) the code can be replaced by 

\cs_new_eq:NN \__lipsum_split_argument_expanded:nnn \SplitArgument
\cs_generate_variant:Nn \__lipsum_split_argument_expanded:nnn {nne}

This is fixed in lipsum version 2.3 (2021-03-03).

Development moved to https://github.com/PhelypeOleinik/lipsum
