Hello all,
Tonight or tomorrow I'm planning release Kwort 3.2 final but I want
to know if anyone found any bugs with rc3.

Please, let me know if you find any.

Thanks to all of you.
Regards.

Hello everyone on this list,
I know I said Friday night or Saturday, but my good old friend
Andreas Schipplock found some small bugs that took my attention.
So, Kwort wasn't released so far because I finished fixing those
bugs yesterday in the afternoon. Also, I made some pretty cool
upgrades to kpkg, which make it more cool and awesome. ;-)
Now kpkg supports install/doinst.sh and install/README; also instkdb
support URLs, so there's no need in downloading the database with your
custom download manager and then install it with kpkg, now you can do
everything with kpkg.
Also, I took some of my time delivering crux-ports support on Kwort
and Andreas is working on NetBSD-ports -pkgsrc- (I hope we can deliver
this soon too), so we'll have two options; this is great, truly
amazing.
We moved from cdrkit to cdrtools finally after hitting myself with
several bugs on the first one (kpkg update && kpkg remove cdrkit &&
kpkg install cdrtools).

Because of the upgrades to kpkg, and because it is static compiled,
I recommend you all to upgrade kpkg manually by downloading
http://europa.fapyd.unr.edu.ar/pub/kwort/3.2/kpkg.xz and replacing
/usr/bin/kpkg with this binary (once decompressed). You can also wait
for final version version when we hit that too. :-)
Once that you can do:
kpkg update && kpkg upgrade
So you'll be with all known bugs fixed and with the latest version.

Once again, those using Kwort 3.2rc* run it and test it, bug reports
and feature request that help me to improve Kwort are always welcome.

Cheers.
