Sbopkg 0.XX.X released. This version contains the following fixes and
enhancements:
* Move sbopkg to /usr/sbin; update sbopkg.SlackBuild and sspm to reflect
/usr/sbin.
* Change default directory paths in sbopkg.conf.new; add new variable
SBOPKGTMP, which will be used to store sbopkg-related temp files; also
add new variable LOGDIR which will contain any sbopkg-related log files.
* Remove code related to user-mode support; sbopkg must now be run as
root in all cases; add single check at start of script to make sure we
are root.
* Apply a major code cleanup that touches just about every part of sbopkg.
This cleanup makes the code more readable, manageable, and less bug-prone.
Several bugs were fixed as part of this cleanup, and the cleanup will ease
further development and debugging efforts.
* Remove some useless code from check_for_latest and also fix the
download folder for sbopkg updates. Thanks to David Somero for the bug
report.
* Re-implement the code that checks for renamed software; fix upgrading
of renamed packages; thanks to Phillip Warner for raising the issues
with the older code; add wbxml2->libwbxml to sbopkg-renames; thanks to
Mauro Giachero for working on these fixes.
* Fix a tr invocation issue where in certain instances, sbopkg would not run
from certain directories; thanks to Marie-Claude Collilieux for the bug
report.
* Alter sed expression in download code to work around calcurse filename
idiosyncrasy; thanks to Glenn Becker for the bug report.
* Move French man pages into correct /usr/man/fr* location and remove them
from the /docs directory; update French man pages; thanks to
Marie-Claude Collilieux.
* Remove a stale 'find' call, which slightly improves the update feature.
* Add acroread->adobe-reader and GNOME-Colors->gnome-colors to
sbopkg-renames.new.
* Display a message when no packages are installed instead of doing nothing.
* Properly quote the current working directory variable in the event there
are spaces in the directory name.
* Fix a bug where 'sbopkg -c -v local' would display a dialog even though
running in cli mode.
* Fix issue where the 'games' directory was non-browsable due to a
slack-desc file containing double-quotes in the first line; thanks to
Glenn Becker for the original bug report.
