Fast OnlineUpdate for SuSE 0.15.0 Beta1

Fast OnlineUpdate for SuSE is a replacement for SuSEs Yast OnlineUpdate (YOU). It uses the same update description files and is therefore a complete, lightweight alternative.
Main features:
- Fast and reliable update
- Supports SuSE Linux 8.1 to 10.0 and most SuSE business products
- Especially designed for usage in cron jobs
- Interactive mode for full control
- Network-wide updates from the same update directory possible (Even with different SuSE versions!)
- Bandwidth-limit in kbyte/sec for downloads *new*
- Support for non-YOU RPMs, e.g. packman or supplementary (KDE, Gnome, Mozilla) updates *new*
- FTP server benchmarking tool included
- Proxy support
- Automatic resuming of downloads
- Management of offline machines - fou4s can import/export machine data and packages *new*
- Remote host checking, even if fou4s is not installed there *new*
- Filtering (install only security updates, or skip optional packages)
- Interactive ftp server selection
- SuSEconfig is called, after an update is finished (can be turned off)
- Warns the user, if processes are accessing deleted files (which means, that the update is not complete)
- Installation of additional RPMs from the update directory
- Support for the new patch.rpm updates on SuSE 8.0 and higher
Enhancements:
- This release is the first version with SuSE 10.1 support.
- It is a very early beta.
- Dont use it with older SuSE versions; it will probably be unable to update itself.
