29.9.04 20:33 Software auto update ( , , , )

One more article in the series of "things I really like (see previous post about KDE gadgets). This time it is auto update feature. I hate manually have to install newer versions of applications. All applications should provide auto update functionality. Here is a (small) list of auto updates I often use:

  • apt-get to update my Suse distribution
  • eclipse auto-update. Good for eclipse+GEF+EMF ... but still too many plugins don't provide install-URL and have to be "intalled" (extract in plugin directory) manually
  • Java WebStart
