Hi sparky4!
I was going to update the news item on the website with this new
version, but I'm having trouble finding version 0.99.8248a on your
GitHub releases page:
https://github.com/sparky4/fdnpkg16/releases
i must of forgotten to make one let me make it!
You don't label these with version numbers, so I'm not sure what
version the "massive amount of mulltipackage bug fixs in this one!"
title actually represents. The GitHub "tag" off to the side suggests
0.99.8248, but that's not the same as 0.99.8248a in your email
announcement.
yeah it is true
It will help me (and others) to browse your versions in GitHub if you
label them with numbers instead of text. For example, you use these
labels for the last several releases:
https://github.com/sparky4/fdnpkg16/releases
cool i will do this for now
"massive amount of mulltipackage bug fixs in this one!"
Oct 11
"0.99.8246"
Oct 11
"fix for list local"
Oct 10
"fixed a bug introduced into this version"
Oct 10
"0.99.8244c added back the mem check feature! :D"
Oct 10
"fix strings up"
Oct 9
"translations updates"
Oct 9
"fixed string issues again .-. also i tried to implement
farcoreleft... failed xD"
Oct 9
Based on these labels, I would assume that 0.99.8246" is the only
actual "release" on this page, and the others are probably
in-development "snapshots" but not meant as releases.
1 moment
Would you mind labeling future releases something like "version
0.99.83" or "FDNPKG16 ver. 0.99.8301a" if they are meant as "releases"
-- and something like "snapshot (with text description)" if it's an
in-development "snapshot" that's not really meant as a release. I
think that would help me (and others like me) who are trying to find
the version you announce on email lists. That will also make it easier
for me to update the news items on the website with the right version;
since you make more than one "release" in a day, I will know what
release to link to when I update the news items.
Thanks for all the updates!
cool ill make a new release on git hub from what u suggested here! :D

i squashed alot of bugs since 0.99.8244
multi package update introduced like 50 logic bugs with the loop system.
Most of the bugs is argument processing of argc. and i added lzma
support back it compiled but i cant test it well
If u see any inconsistencies with multi package manipulation or not
being similar with single package install like fdnpkg let me know asap
