Zero Install Injector 0.33 (Default branch) |
|
|
The Zero Install Injector makes it possible for
users to install software easily and without the
need for root privileges. It takes the URL of a
program's interface description and chooses
suitable versions of the program and all of its
dependencies (also identified by URLs) according
to the user's policy settings (eg. "stable",
"testing", "minimal network use", etc). The chosen
versions are downloaded and cached and the program
is run, using environment variables to let it find
the components.

Changes:
Package information and GPG keys can be downloaded from a mirror service if the main site is unavailable. Checking for updates is automatically disabled if the NetworkManager D-BUS service is present and reports the status as offline. A number of bugs introduced by the large API changes in 0.32 were fixed.
