Dear Fou4s Users,

More than a year has passed since the last version. Really Shocking ;-) 

Since I hope to start on 10.1 support soon (zen-updater is just soooo 
slow!), I have released a new version with all fixes that I have included 
during the last year. The version from yesterday (0.14.0) has a bug with 
kernel update reboot notifications only working at the first run. This is 
fixed now.

Changelog:
* Changed rsync to follow symlinks
* Added support for CURL
* Added support for https proxies and other https fixes (mostly for 
  business products)
* Warn if more than one kernel is installed, because reboot check won't 
  work
* Fixes for 0.13.1
  + Use only files in SuSE "directory" files, not all that are found 
    (--usedir)
  + Downloading of server list works again (--server -w)
  + Fix wrong cache invalidation on business products
  + Fix renaming of module directory for kernel backups
  + Fix kernel check to work every time, not only during the first run
* New config file options:
  + UseCurl (default:off)
  + ProxyDigest (default:off)
* New parameters
  + usecurl
  + proxydigest (digest authentication, only supported by curl!)


regards,
Markus Gaugusch
