-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2013-5060 2013-04-06 23:55:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : zeroinstall-injector Product : Fedora 18 Version : 2.1 Release : 1.fc18 URL : http://0install.net Summary : The Zero Install Injector (0launch) Description : The Zero Install Injector makes it easy for users to install software without needing root privileges. It takes the URL of a program and runs it (downloading it first if necessary). Any dependencies of the program are fetched in the same way. The user controls which version of the program and its dependencies to use. Zero Install is a decentralized installation system (there is no central repository; all packages are identified by URLs), loosely-coupled (if different programs require different versions of a library then both versions are installed in parallel, without conflicts), and has an emphasis on security (all package descriptions are GPG-signed, and contain cryptographic hashes of the contents of each version). Each version of each program is stored in its own sub-directory within the Zero Install cache (nothing is installed to directories outside of the cache, such as /usr/bin) and no code from the package is run during install or uninstall. The system can automatically check for updates when software is run. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.zero-install.devel/6827 New features - Added "0install search" - Use new version of 0install-runenv-cli helper - Add a <file> download step, with mandatory href, dest and size attributes - Added <remove> recipe step - Added optional `dest` attribute to <archive> - Search system paths for native binaries - Added generic binding element <binding> - Support .deb files with data.tar.xz - Added support for Tulip mainloop - "0install add" now prints a warning if the target has a replaced-by field (like 0alias used to do) Changes - Improved diagnostics when a required command is missing - Add spacer lines for readability in "0install show" output - Report exact error when a script is unreadable in "0install man" - Improved error when a feed has the wrong root element Bug fixes - Cope with read-only cache in Fetcher.download_and_import_feed - Don't abort running an app if updating fails due to a read-only filesystem - Fixed exception reporting on Python 3 - Fix typo ("contraint") - GtkStatusIcon.set_blinking has been removed from GTK 3 - Log exception before converting it to a string in Handler.report_error Python API / code cleanups - Refactoring in sat.py to be more Pythonic - Added more epydoc types - Pass a list to check_call, not a string - Converted remaining classes to be new-style classes - Test "0store add" with a path to extract - Add an --xml output option to the testrunner - Make the coverage output as --xml as well - Use copy instead of symlink for latest app selections document on Windows Translations - Updated Swedish translation -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Apr 5 2013 Michel Salim <[email protected]> - 2.1-1 - Update to 2.1 * Wed Mar 6 2013 Michel Salim <[email protected]> - 2.0-1 - Update to 2.0 * Mon Feb 25 2013 Michel Salim <[email protected]> - 1.16-1 - Update to 1.16 * Mon Nov 19 2012 Michel Salim <[email protected]> - 1.13-1 - Update to 1.13 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #948181 - zeroinstall-injector-2.1 is available https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=948181 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
