Probably because of a bug with verifying signatures when the filehash file didn't have a signature.
Now I have another issue: Some apps give error and Freshen cannot seem to find their versions: Freshen: Attempting to fetch recipe dependencies for Xorg GetRecipe: Recipe for Xorg 0 not found It may be that I have a later version present in that directory, but the Current link points to the older version, I don't know. But I had this error on two applications and both fulfilled that criteria. > > while 'Freshen -U' says: > > "Freshen: Upgrading 1/320..." > > > > Is there any way to tell what list 'Freshen -U' uses, i.e. what > > applications it's going to upgrade? > No. Well, you can alias InstallPackage and Compile to something else, > I guess, but that's it.

I've implemented -U/--no-updatesettings for Compile and InstallPackage for you to use. :) -- /Jonas _______________________________________________ gobolinux-devel mailing list gobolinux-devel@lists.gobolinux.org http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-devel
