Change log for Tiny Core v2.9

* Updated appbrowser - added "Provides" to search for "What provides", also speed improvements.
* Updated appsaudit - added "Display All Not Depends On".
* Updated tce-load - added support for recursive dependencies.
* Updated tc-config - persistent home and/or opt, changed ext only support to not Microsoft file system support.
* Updated ab to use tmp work files.
* Improved language support by auto loading locale support extension(s) when both "lang=  " and the "-locale.tcz" extension(s) are available in tce/optional.
* Renamed *.core.gz to simply *.gz for ISO9660 compliance.
* Clean up of reported relics and empty directories.
* Updated f2 & f3 boot message screens.
* Fixed bug in tce-update easy mode.
* Dropped the embedded help file.

Notes:

Attention extension makers, please test the new recursive dependency process, but hold in abeyance until v2.9 is final.

Since the embedded help file has been dropped, your system menu, likely in your backup will need to be adjusted. Edit/remove such entry.

helander:
Great news, especially the recursive loading of dependencies :)

Thanks

The AppsAudit 'Display All NotDepended On' works great, and found old extensions that could be removed.
Thanks.

Is there a reason that 'losetup' limits its output to the first 10 loop devices?

Have tested TC and MC with no problems.
Great job.

knezek:
Just an FYI:

Chromium browser causes my connection to be lost(essid reset and connection dropped) just by opening it...works fine with 2.8.

roberts:
Nothing has changed in the base to have such an effect on network connection.
However, I will try running chrome. Seems lately I have been browser bouncing.
