    Office Space

    Wow. I'd heard good things about this movie before, but somehow I'd never seen it. It's scary how familiar some of the characters and scenarios in this film are; the first half of it is great observational comedy. Recommended viewing for cube-dwellers everywhere...

    JTE 1.12 released

    Again, I think this is the last release I need to make. Of course! I've tested the patches against cdrtools and debian-cd and I've built several jigdo images that jigdo-mirror can rebuild into ISOs. It works.

    Quite a few changes since 1.10:

    • Added rsync64 sums that Richard asked for
    • Added jigit "friendly" wrapper script around mkimage
    • mkimage will now do some of the work needed to rebuild images where we are missing parts
    • Improved docs
    • Updated and fixed the patches for both mkisofs and debian-cd

    Manty has been testing on gluck, and things are looking promising now. The next CD/DVD creation runs are probably going to use JTE rather than jigdo. My work here is done... :-)

    Usual place for download: https://www.einval.com/~steve/software/JTE/

    NOTE: the JTE patch to mkisofs needs to be applied AFTER debian patches have been applied during the package build process, as that's easiest for people who want to use the rest of the Debian-applied patches too.
