sqg crashing


Ever since somebody forgot to add a closing double quotation mark to pepperflash-plugin.info, whenever I invoke sqg -a the command fails when attempting to process the file above, just terminating prematurely under the best of circumstances, leading to a crash, more often than not. The net effect is the same - namely, sqg -a fails to retrieve all the sqf files. One can get around this by patching /var/lib/sbopkg/SBo/14.2/multimedia/pepperflash-plugin/pepperflash-plugin.info, but this file is replaced every time one does sbopkg -r. Which, for several days now has been replaced with the buggy pepperflash-info file. Anybody know when this is going to be patched up?

The fixed pepperflash-plugin.info is already in the queue and will be pushed with this weekend's update. You shouldn't need to run sbopkg -r until after the update is pushed (it's normally only updated once a week), so if you manually fix the .info file, wait until the next update is pushed, usually Friday evening for me (UTC -6), until you run sbopkg -r, and that will likely fix your issue.
