Thanks for the support, Alexander. It's available from
http://www.cyest.org/drakupdatetxt/
I will reuse some of the codes from MandrakeUpdate. Hrhm...
MandrakeUpdate is very good, however it can't handle automatic
retrieval of updates without user interaction, and this is what I'm
working on with this drakupdatetxt. Automatic update is pretty handy so
that sysadmin of large network doesn't have to worry about missing
patches and bugfixes.
Please do not expect that it's fully working right now since it's still
Day 1.
