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.
