urpmi 'Mancoosi enabled' for Mandriva 2009.1 released

A modified urpmi version has been released for Mandriva 2009.1

It is available here : http://www.mancoosi.org/software/

This version of urpmi permits the installation of urpmi-dudf (which is a plugin for urpmi). This plugin allows urpmi to generate and upload dudf error files (to Mancoosi’s servers). Others packages are the same as the Mandriva 2009.1 original ones.

To install urpmi-dudf, you juste have to upgrade your installed packages with these versions, and install urpmi-dudf.

This version is a backport of the one included into Mandriva 2010.0, out in october 2009.

Once urpmi-dudf installed, if an error occurs during an installation, urpmi will ask the user if he wants to generate a dudf file and upload it to our servers.

The user can force this generation/upload with a new urpmi parameter : "--force-dudf" (even if no error occurs).
