Mirror script missed last 64-current changelog update


I noticed that the changelog for 64-current was updated with a rebuilt pkgtool package, yet it doesn't look like Alien_Bob's script picked it up when I ran it. According to ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackwar...slackware64/a/ , I should have three pkgtool files with the dates of 7/19/2009. Yet, my local mirror had older dates on them. I can't remember exactly what they were as I already updated the mirror by hand to include the newer files, but I was thinking they were sometime in May...

I also re-downloaded the entire ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackwar...ce/a/pkgtools/ directory into my mirror to reflect changes there.

Odd...

Edit - Just checked my remote mirror and it DOES have the newer files. I dunno what the heck happened then...

10 4. I had them too, but the dates were wrong. They were showing up as May dates instead of the 7/19 date which is correct.

I don't know. Ghosts in the machine I guess.
