1.3 - dbin evolves once again!

  • dbin now versions its repo index format, and it is hardcoded to each version. This should make the URLs for the repos be easier to read
  • dbin now caches its metadata (6hours), if have this enabled in your config. (this behavior gets disabled with DBIN_NOCONFIG)
  • dbin now EXCLUDES all non-portable programs from the repos
  • dbin has gained the ability to use file:/// as a repo index URL
  • dbin's parsing of env variables in its Config struct has been reworked to be more idiomatic and work with aliases
  • dbin now shows you the notes and licenses of packages
  • pelfd was recently removed from the repos. As such, I've developed a replacement, which will be introduced soon and will make it as dbin's AppBundle/AppImage/RunImage/FlatImage integrator, very soon
NOTE: Please change your dbin config to use the new repo, or remove the config. This won't be necessary again as repo URLs now come versioned and dbin will be able to fix an old config.
A follow-up release is imminent! Stay tuned!
TODO
