Hi,

I finally found some time to check your contribution.

I made some changes...

A problem with check_procs:
- - it didn't work properly on Linux (ps -x is not a valid syntax).
- - if for example you do a "vi update_sqlgrey_config" and launch it,
check_procs thinks update_sqlgrey_config is alrealy launched.
As the window for a race condition is now reduced (only move files
around after all downloads, see below), I removed check_procs
completely.

Revert to original update_sqlgrey_config behaviour, specifically :
- - don't download files that already match the checksum,
- - don't replace any file unless all files downloaded match the
checksum,
- - don't print anything unless something had to be done (don't want
cron to send mails each time this script is called, a new
- --verbose|-v flag overrides this).

The code for managing the temp directory is replaced. This one should
be guaranteed collision-free by use of File::Temp::tempdir, the
details for file/directory removal are handled by File::Temp
("CLEANUP =3D> 1" in the tempdir call).

There will be a lot of new dependencies with this script. I think
I'll provide both update_sqlgrey_config files in the future as they
both have their usage. The shell one is small and only needs md5sum,
the perl one is more clean and probably easier to port.

You'll find the result attached.

Lionel.
