sce-update, possible quick check feature
Jason W:
'sce-update -a' updates any SCEs needing updating, whether one or all. Either way, all are up to date with the NEWDEBINX, which is then copied to OLDDEBINX after the updating is complete.
All 'sce-update -a' sessions use the old/new debinx checking. And the NEWDEBINX is copied to old only after the updating of any needed SCEs is complete.
I actually have a plan to make this quick check available to all SCEs with any use of sce-update by the use of a 'packagename'.sce.debinx file containing the md5sum of the debinx it was created with, which would be checked against the NEWDEBINX.
Jason W:
New RC uploaded that now creates on sce-import packagename.sce.debinx files that contain the md5sum of the NEWDEBINX data they were created with. This way, when the .debinx file exists, any SCE gets a quick update check with any use of sce-update.

Why is development slowing, 24 hours from stable release to new RC! Appears to work well. New sce-import creates an *.sce.debinx file. Running sce-update then selecting that SCE for update check gets almost immediate 'No updates available...' message. Just cosmetic, output indicates no updates available twice.
--- Code: ---nano
You are about to check for updates to the above SCEs. y to continue, n to exit. (y/N): y
Checking for updates for nano.sce..
nano is up to date.
No updates available for main or dependency SCEs.
No updates available for chosen SCEs at this time.
--- End code ---
Jason W:
lol. Cosmetic fixes to sce-update now in the latest RC. Hopefully all is good, we will know when there are updates available to the dCore port we are testing with. But being a simple md5sum check, the quick just be working. And the updating aside from that when there are package updates hopefully is now solid.

This new packagename.sce.debinx system seems pretty good, but as described only gets created with a fresh import. Haven't had any recent updates, if an SCE gets updated then it presumably gets re-imported along with a fresh packagename.sce.debinx file?
If so that's great. Would there be any value or even possible to also create this packagename.sce.debinx file when an individual SCE is simply update checked, then rechecking again should be instant. Maybe irrelevant as new dCore users will build new SCEs with the helpful *.sce.debinx files already in place. More an issue for existing users that haven't needed to update or import the extension recently. Just wondering...
