Updates

|From: wagener@gown.das.bnl.gov (Richard Wagener)

|I'd like to make a suggestion to those of you who are responsible for
|putting updates to GRASS 4.0 on the moon. I just went through the
|rather painful exercise of downloading all the *.cpio.Z files from the
|moon, and installing those updates. The problem/nuisance is that the
|directory hierarchy is not consistently saved in the cpio files, which
|makes it very labor intensive to install updates (one must first
|check the cpio table of contents to see where it should be extracted
|to).
|
|My suggestion is therefore to uniformly use relative pathnames to the
|installed GRASS 4.0 root src directory.
|Similarly for src.{alpha,contrib,related}.

     Very good suggestion. It's something I'm working on right now. It may
take a while to resave all the cpio files, but it should only be a couple more
days.
     The paths will start at src{.alpha,.conrtib,.related}
