Hi Gents;

today Bering-uClibc 4.1-rc1 has been uploaded to the FRS.

As expected the number of changes has shrunken.
tor, shorewall and wpa_supplicant has been updated to latest stable 
upstream versions, etc.lrp has been fixed to start procps after the network 
is up...

We've added an mdev wrapper to autoload modules on hotplug - feedback is 
welcome. 

dhcpd has also been updated and supports now ipv6
(see: 
https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/leaf/index.php?title=Bering-
uClibc_4.x_-_User_Guide_-_IPv6_Networking_-_Configure_DHCPv6)


A change, that will affect all users installing a new image, is the addition 
of license.lrp to the images. It is loaded by default (leaf.cfg) and 
provides open source license texts. Previously the duty to include the 
licenses, has been neglected due to the little space of a floppy - but with 
moving away from a floppy-based release, this has to be changed.

license.lrp provides the open source licenses applications use, the lrp 
packages generate a link in /var/lib/lrpkg to the license text 
(packagename.license).
This is ongoing work and we will add more links and licenses, while working 
on the packages.

You may remove license.lrp from leaf.cfg (and/or the images) to save space.
We do believe this a good compromise between running in an space-limited 
environment and the duty to obey the licenses.

thx for reading
