I’ve just noticed that there is a lot more information on the latest Installer version, on its Featured screen. Here’s some of the most notable stuff:
"This release uses a different core repository and firmware 1.1.1 is recommended."
Known Issues:
- Random hangs
- Section list titles for ‘Recent Packages’ are poorly implemented
- Free space check / display is missing
- Refreshes may hang
- More Info pages do not scale
- No Safari plugin available yet
- Local installs not yet supported
There’s more, but those seem like the major ones for now.
One other cool feature of this new version that I forgot to mention in the previous post is that when you hit ‘More Info’ for an individual package, it doesn’t launch Safari and load a web page anymore. As per the list above, the More Info pages currently don’t scale, so you have to do some serious scrolling on some of them.
I have not had the app hang on me yet, but I have seen the slow refreshes issue. Even so, I’m still loving this update.
