Hi!
I'm proud to announce the new version of fou4s, 0.3.0.
You can get it at http://fou4s.gaugusch.at/.
>From the changelog:
* Fixes for 0.2.1:
+ PHP update packages are available again (were filtered out due to a
bad wget option)
+ Package descriptions with missing number after Size: won't crash fou4s
now
+ The RemarkList option actually works now. Previously it disabled
downloading of all packages after the first entry was found.
* All platforms are now supported (i386, sparc, ...):
+ RPM is now a noarch.rpm
* More information: Downloadsize of all packages (for -e)
* Packagelist directory is automatically cleaned from old package
description files
* New options:
+ --checkfou4s, checks for an update of fou4s
+ --proxyuser and --proxypassword
+ --nocont, to disable checking of patches.cont directory on SuSE 8
+ -b, to use fou4s-benchmark and download from the fastest server.
+ --config, to use another config file (for different servers)
* New version of fou4s-benchmark (by G. Sommer)
* The fou4s RPM is now signed with key fou4s@gaugusch.at (ID AFB66D7C)
+ Fou4s now supports updating itself, using the checkfou4s switch
+ New cron script with saner defaults
With this release I'm hoping to find no bugs within the first 24 hours
after release, so it may be really worth a try ;)
If you have any problems, don't hesitate to contact me. I need feedback
especially for other architectures than i386 and sparc.
regards,
Markus Gaugusch
