apt-offline v1.7.1 released
I am happy to mention the release of apt-offline, version 1.7.1.
https://www.researchut.com/blog/apt-offline-171
This release includes many bug fixes, code cleanups and better integration.
Integration with PolicyKit
Better integration with apt gpg keyring
Resilient to failures when a sub-task errors out
New Feature: Changelog
This release adds the ability to deal with package changelogs ('set' command option: --generate-changelog) based on what is installed, extract changelog (Currently support with python-apt only) from downloaded packages and display them during installation ('install' command opiton: --skip-changelog, if you want to skip display of changelog)
New Option: --apt-backend
Users can now opt to choose an apt backend of their choice. Currently support: apt, apt-get (default) and python-apt
Hopefully, there will be one more release, before the release to Stretch.
