On Tue, 1 Jul 2008, Josef Kleber submitted an update to the

miktex_update

package.

Location on CTAN: /support/miktex_update Summary description: A cygwin bash script for automatic updating and installing new packages of MiKTeX License type: lppl

Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The miktex_update script offers automatic updating and/or installing of new packages of an existing MiKTeX installation. It supports direct connection with online repositories of the MiKTeX server network, as well as synchronizing a local repository (CTAN) with following update. In the end you should have an up-to-date and complete MiKTeX installation.

License: LPPL

Changes in v1.1:

Bugfix: in local searchonly mode (miktex_update -ls) mpm could not access cygwin's /tmp/... directory -> Error: mpm.exe: Invalide MiKTeX configuration. -> moved temp directory to %TEMP% (Windows environment variable) directory

Changed behavior of option -o, --online (without -r, --repository) the script will no longer echo a random online repository, but use it directly to connect with the MiKTeX server network.
