Posted by jaos on Sunday January 17, 2010 07:37pm

Changes for slapt-get 0.10.2c include:

ignore the location for installed packages as they do not have any real meaning and end up confusing the user.

Files and documentation available at http://software.jaos.org/#slapt-get.

updated greek translation from George Vlahavas
fixed display bug when viewing installed packages
Added default strings for the dependency, changelog, and files tabs in the event there is no data (thanks George)

slapt-get 0.10.2b and gslapt 0.5.2a

Posted by jaos on Saturday October 31, 2009 02:17pm

slapt-get 0.10.2b features the following changes:

modified disk checking mechanism so that the working directory filesystem is checked for downloads and then / is checked for the uncompressed size. This is not 100% ideal since /usr may be on another filestem but it should make Tadgy slightly happier. Added slapt_disk_space_check to public API.

Files and documentation available at http://software.jaos.org/#slapt-get.

glsapt 0.5.2a features the following changes:

use slapt_disk_space_check from libslapt
