Description:
apt-spy - writes a sources.list file based on bandwidth tests

Changes:
apt-spy (3.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* All new source! Total rewrite, so all new bugs to find! :)
* New features in this version include:
- Ability to only benchmark mirrors from a given geographical region
(Pertains: #119918)
This means (in part) that if you want to, you can define your very *own*
"Primary mirror list" easily and quickly :) (Closes: #134538)
- The -d <dist> option is now *required* before apt-spy will overwrite
sources.list. It proved entirely too difficult to parse the
distribution to use from the existing list (many people have multiple
distributions in there, and it's not easy to decide which to use), but
it will now NOT overwrite your sources.list with the WRONG
distribution (unless you are silly and tell it the wrong one :)
(Closes: #119918)
- This version no longer outputs an outdated version string.
(Closes: #153755)
- We no longer add outdated external repostories to sources.list
(Closes: #193166)
- setting -e 1 now will do the Right Thing (Closes: #165629)
- No longer limited to a 10Mbit max throughput (Closes: #154546)
- Totally different sourcetree shouldn't segfault (or at least, not in
the same places :) (Closes: #150205 #139220)
- Should now deal with an edited mirrors.list (although defining your
own "area" is more robust). (Closes: #144311)
- There are far more informative error messages if we have problems with
retrieving either the mirror list during an update, or whilst
benchmarking any of the servers. There may be *similar* bugs to this
one in 3.0, but the OLD bug has gone :) (Closes: #137001)
* I would like to state, on record, my undying gratitude towards Steven
Holmes, who wrote this version of apt-spy for me as a favour. After
Danny (who wrote v1.x and v2.x) became too busy with life to look after
it, it was looking like I was going to have to ask for its removal (for
chronic bugginess) since I certainly didn't have the time to do a full
rewrite. Steven stepped in, even though he is a BSD whore these days,
and has done an utterly wonderful job of the rewrite. Thanks steg, I owe
you a pint (well, two pints since I managed to get the BSD whore dig in :)
