Re: USM bug reports
No problem here. Once and a while, there seems to be some problem with the servers.
Try again later.

An option to Skip error and Continue would be nice to have.

Re: USM bug reports
Perhabs I am missing something but I update USM and tell me everything is OK, but when I search it just stays there. I have the latest noarch, which I just downloaded, when I look at the /tmp/usm it's empty. If I try to update again it wont let me.

Re: USM bug reports
The major version number is the same (3.1.1) but there was a second rebuild done. 3.1.1-noarch-2
Download the usm-0.0-latest-noarch.txz file.

Re: USM bug reports
Are you serious, I'm back to this!!!
No idea, what, how or why.
I clicked on the taskbar icon, replied the root password then nothing. Tried usm in terminal mode, got a similar screen. Rebooted, and here I am.
No, this isn't Always Fresh mode, it's changes=EXIT mode. And USM is version 3.1.1.
And in Always Fresh mode I see
My save.dat file is not full. And booting in changes=EXIT mode does not have a problem writing to the save.dat file.
However, booting with extramods= and my save.dat file rather than changes=EXIT clicking on the USM icon on the taskbar does start.

Re: USM bug reports
I get this behavior after updating and then doing a search. The fix is to close USM and restart, then it will search. Also noticed that, after the update, checking "help/about" shows no version. After closing, then reopening, it shows as 3.1.1.Perhabs I am missing something but I update USM and tell me everything is OK, but when I search it just stays there. I have the latest noarch, which I just downloaded, when I look at the /tmp/usm it's empty. If I try to update again it wont let me.
