1: In case of a large upgrade (e.g. a new B-U is released), it would be nice if one could simply scp all the new packages over to the MSDOS filesystem, and then type "apkg -u -a" to have apkg check *EVERY* package currently loaded on the system. 2: I'd like a command that simply gives me a list of all change or new files changed since boot. Maybe by default only show changed config files, and an option to show all changed or new files anywhere in the system (including /var/log /var/run, et al...). > - During backup the sha1sums of the files in memory are compared with the > saved *.sha1 sums, new files are detected and duplicates are filtered out. > For example: when one package has an etc/ppp directory in <package>.local > and > another one an etc/ppp/dsl-providers file listed, the dsl-provider file would > be find twice and also stored twice in the configdb. 3: Stored twice in the configdb?

What does a "non-full" backup do now? Or is that option gone? You guys have done a great job moving leaf foward.
