I have been testing the switch to using PM_NEEDS_UPDATE to lower the environment memory footprint for a while, and thought I had at least most of the bugs worked out, but it turned out that I was wrong. Fortunately some patient users were prompt with sending me bug reports which I was able to address. I'm really hoping that 3.3 will be the last new version for a while. In retrospect I would have been better off releasing a 3.0.1 that just fixed the MD5/DISTINFO_FILE problem, and saved the rest of the changes for another day. If anyone was seriously inconvenienced by the bugs and/or frequent updates, please accept my apologies. Regards, Doug - -- Nothin' ever doesn't change, but nothin' changes much. -- OK Go Breadth of IT experience, and depth of knowledge in the DNS.
