[Synaptic-devel] 0.45pre7

[Michael Vogt]

Hi,


it seems like this the longest pre-version releasing in the history of
synaptic. Let's hope I don't take it as far as Linus with his stable
pre kernels :) 

Anyway I put 0.45pre7 on 
http://people.debian.org/~mvo/synaptic/testing/synaptic-0.45pre7.tar.gz

It contains even more fixes for the "Available Versions"
support. There where quite a few subtle bugs hiding, because synaptic
did never supported downgrading packages so far. We now do :) 

The main change between pre6 and pre7 is that we use radiobuttons
instead of normal buttons now. Guillaume and Sebastian convinced me :) 

Beside this, all(?) problems reported should be fixed (thanks Sviatoslav
and Alwin).


If no problems show up, I will not make another pre-release. The only
thing I want to change is a better description for the "Advanced"
tab. I'm thinking of renaming it into "Expert"? And the text could be: 
- "Available versions"
+ "Install specific version (use with care!)

What do you think?


bye,
 Michael
