Wary 0.9.8 uploaded

November 14, 2010 — BarryK
I think that this will be the last beta -- the next will be an RC (Release Candidate).

Download from here:

If you are on dialup and already have downloaded Wary 096, good news as the .delta files are only 6.4MB and 1.3MB. If you have Wary 094, you can download the .delta files to upgrade to 096, then to 098.

The last-minute fixes in the unofficial 097 have been important, and 098 is looking good!

Multiple package versions
Username: Iguleder
"Barry, if I build a dpup and have both the Debian Multimedia and the Debian repo in the repos list, here's what I get: processing ffmpeg_0.6~svn20100726-0.1_i386.deb processing ffmpeg_0.5.2-6_i386.deb It downloads the package twice (the newer one from Debian Multimedia and the older one from the main repo) and does the processing twice. I'm not sure what ffmpeg version eventually went into the package, but this is very weird. The same also happens with other packages that exist on both repos, with different versions. Does this mean Woof downloads and does the processing for each COMPAT_DISTRO package it finds?

"It is too late for me to think clearly about this... what you are says should not normally happen. I think it might happen perhaps if the two packages are listed in the same repo.
