Is there any update for this Ricardo? Do we just go ahead and use the
old style for the time being?
Oh, I dropped the ball there. It’s very simple to do this, but I don’t
think I can do it today, I’m afraid. I can try to do it tomorrow, but I
don’t think it should block the GitHub updater.
I could easily patch the GitHub updater along with all the other
updaters that would need to be adapted, so my vote is for using the old
style for now and switching to package objects soon thereafter.
Fine with me!
Ben: can you post the latest version of the patch? Or was it already
OK?
Not OK just yet, I'll resend, I hope today.
Happy (Chinese) GNU year peoples.
