This prevents the previous default slapt-get behavior from changing and causing confusion. With priorities, /patches is always assigned +1 above the package sources priority. So if no priorities were in use then anything found in any sources /patches always trumped anything else. This is probably the most correct behavior but it is still unexpected for existing users. To get the correct behavior, assign a priority to one or more sources. <li>reordered priorities to "default < official < preferred < custom" as this seems to be more intuitive. Having preferred less than official is confusing. </ul> Files and documentation available at <a href="http://software.jaos.org/#slapt-get">http://software.jaos.org/#slapt-get</a>. http://www.jaos.org/node/311 Mon, 15 Dec 2008 01:03:30 +0000 This release features the following changes: <ul> <li>fixed removing uninstalled dependencies when removing packages <li>added priority to source management <li>modified source management to use a new window for adding and editing the source. <li>updated for new libslapt changes <li>German translation updates by Manfred. </ul> Files and documentation available at <a href="http://software.jaos.org/#gslapt">http://software.jaos.org/#gslapt</a>. http://www.jaos.org/node/310 Sat, 13 Dec 2008 15:34:35 +0000 <br> This release features the following changes: <ul> <li>validate against installed package list when creating a list of obsolete packages and their dependencies so as to not try and remove uninstalled packages <li>translation updates <li>(libslapt) added slapt_write_rc_config (incorporating from gslapt) <li>(libslapt) added parsing of disabled sources (instead of ignoring what gslapt creates). <li>test updates <li>Added source priority support based on patch submitted by Ken Milmore (see <a href="http://software.jaos.org/BUILD/slapt-get/FAQ.html#slgFAQ57">FAQ #57</a>) <li>Added support for ikg extension (requested by Miguel Reynosso) <li>Fix for MD5 string length (Thanks to Boris Popov) </ul> Files and documentation available at <a href="http://software.jaos.org/#slapt-get">http://software.jaos.org/#slapt-get</a>. http://www.jaos.org/node/309 Sat, 13 Dec 2008 15:33:24 +0000 Use the text input below to search jaos.org terms http://www.jaos.org/search
