hi roberts,

you wrote:
Re: mydata.tgz.bfe is encrypted with the password in quotes
I have been testing "protect" with v4.3rc1. I did make some tweaks.
"Protect" should work without issue when this rc is made public.

i think i did not explain the problem clear enough, because there is still the common behavior:

to decrypt the protected mydata.tgz.bfe on the command line with
tc@box:~$ bcrypt mydata.tgz.bfe
Encryption key: "password"

the password is not enough for the encryption of that protected file,
i have to write the protected-boot-password with quotes,
one at the beginning and one at the end.... not just password, "password" is needed.
I don't see any inconsistencies with intended use of the 'protect' boot option.
It appears that your approach is a separate stand-alone decrypting which would be a non-intended use.

ScmBrowser Depends and Size window is empty.
Not as relevant for self contained style scms. Likely will be dropped before final.

There are 19 packages with dep in scm repository. OK, it is mainly a demo/test repository, but there will be packages with dep for sure. SIze is also important to know. Please keep it in the final.

Not know, but in a later release ScmBrowser and AppBrowser must be the same tool and not two nearly identical application.

Please add OnlyShownIn=old to tinycore-scm.desktop and tinycore-wbarconf.desktop as they are not needed in DE like LXDE or Xfce4.

tinycore-....desktop have 755 permisson except tinycore-wbarconf.desktop having 644. Doesn't influence operation and mainly cosmetics, but the proper permission would be 644.

We are introducing scms as an additional option for our users. There are currently no plans to deprecate tcz style extensions. There is always the trade-off of efficiency and size. Both have there place.

does that mean that certain extensions will be available in both formats, or will migrate from tcz to scm? I'm mostly concerned with the upgrade procedure, in the second case.

q2: tce-update fails to work due to md5.db not being found. after installing any package the errors go away.

tce-update is not downloading md5.db.
After manually downloading md5.db, extensions containing "++" such as
libxml++.tcz or tolua++.tcz cannot be verified.

Yes. Needed to use appsaudit for download to occur.
But now fixed for cli use.
Also fixed for "++".

That's exactly how I did the download.
Looking forward to rc2.
Thanks.
