It presents new -m option which allows you to update packages only to latest official maintenance level instead of default getting simply latest package version.
* fix for strings containing only PTF ID in compare_report output * -m option for bumping up to latest maintenance level instead of default latest package versions
small changes in diagnostic and runtime messages
-P flag exports https_proxy environment variable too.
If you suffer from "empty target directory" bug then you should get this release.
SIGTERM handling added.
* SIGTERM/SIGINT handler for operations via system() call. * Warn if we're running on system other than AIX 5
* Use smarter, bffcreate-based algorithm to determine if we need to d/l update. * -X key for automatically extending filesystem with updates dir. * `import' command to import directories with lots of updates. (specify source dir with -t and target with -d) * bffs are being downloaded to temporary directory first (specify with -t key) * bugfix for cleanup function: deadloop unless -d was working dir. * package renaming is now based on what bffcreate -l think about.
