Martin, You might also want to check out "Sparemint Update Manager" a tool I am working on which connects to my new in development (perhaps eternally :-P) sparemint website, http://dev.sparemint.org. It needs to be download and built yourself with CVS but I released a while ago an alpha build that is an executable here: http://www.atari-source.org/?q=node/26 Look for sum-0.1a.tar.gz. I don't recall what features were supported in this build but you should be able to go to a command line and type "./sum.prg info" and it should compare your current package set to the server and recommend a series of updates. If you likes the updates you can do "./sum.prg upgrade" and it will download and upgrade all those packages automagically. The CVS version has GEM support if no commandline arguments are used, but it's unfinished. As I recall you can do things like ./sum.prg install sed and it will find the latest version of sed, download and install it. Usual package manager functionality. I've been meaning to finish it up and get it deployed but I haven't. The package set on the dev site should match the current sparemint right now.
