The 8.0 up2date stuff should work reasonably well as a client. Sometimes
it explodes with a traceback after it finishes applying the updates (due
to some new server-side thing that's not implemented in current yet --
look back at the archives earlier this month for a subject line
mentioning "weird traceback"). It actually applies the updates properly,
though. AFAIK setup is no different than with 7.x clients.
