fixed Mandriva module

fixed a problem with openBSD URL construction

code cleanup

repository column widened to accommodate huge openSUSE repo strings

other minor changes and fixes

0.23

8 years ago

columns have been made wider to accommodate Debian's often excessively long version strings

netbsd, debian and ubuntu now report sizes

netbsd now reports dates

"--shallow" suppresses these fetches, which can be desirable as they are time-consuming and exert server load

all of these calls are threaded by default, can be disabled by "--no-threads" (same procedure as every year, James)

fixed fedora size formatting bug

now warns if distros specified are not recognised (thanks S Cotton for the bug report)

now honours proxies (thanks Thibaut Varene for the bug report, Jonathan Wiltshire for pointing out the fix)

Mandriva module added (thanks Sylvestre Ledru for pointing out the server)

netbsd module now queries pkgsrc.se, shows more details, is faster

Also using the old combos subroutine again for some repositories, is slower

Added manpages in English and German, updated install script to install manpages to /usr/share/man

Added back Fedora

Changed combos subroutine after profiling showed it to be slow

Distributions can now be specified on commandline, using the "-d Distribution1,Distribution2" option; the recognised strings are archlinux, debian, fink, freebsd, macports, netbsd, openbsd, opensuse, slackware, sourcemage, ubuntu
