I just released cupt 1.1.0 to Debian unstable. I intended to push more changes into it, but James Vega recently discovered critical issue about 'libc6-i686' package that can break the whole system if its version differs from version of 'libc6' package, so in absence of answer from Debian eglibc maintainers I implemented a workaround for it and released new version.

Nevertheless, the following changes worth noting:


  • performance and RAM usage improvements: most significant is a tremendous speed-up of the function that calculates dpkg calls sequence, achieved by throwing away standard Graph library and writing a small private one, optimized for Cupt usage

  • support of '-y' command-line switch

  • reinstalling packages is now possible
