23 it would be worth mentioning that you may no longer use fcrontab -u
24 systab when the new useflag used, what you do when you automatically
25 updatet. could also be a bug, maybe even deliberate.
26 Is there a switch that only installed updates which older than 1 month?
27 so i find the time to read bug-tracks, lists etc.
28 sorry, but this update, I find that very funny.
