Unfortunately no one can be told what fun_plug is - you have to see it for yourself.

Fonz,
according to your changelog you have continued your tremendous work. I’m wondering how to update ffp.
From the changelog: ffp-scripts-0.5-18: Updated. Can we get away without the utmp group?
NOTE: You should have the latest funpkg installed. After upgrading
with funpkg -u, reinstall with funpkg -I.
I know how to update packages, but ffp itself? I also found your discussion with paperboy in http://dns323.kood.org/forum/viewtopic. … 0&p=1, but I must admit, I could not follow.
Is there a recommended way to update an existing ffp.5 installation?

There's nothing in the install tarball (fun_plug.tgz) that's not in a package. The simplest way to stay current is to install all the main packages ( http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0.5/packages/ ).
I suggest to keep a local copy of the packages using rsync (don't forget --delete). Then use 'funpkg -i *.tgz' and 'funpkg -u *.tgz' to install and upgrade.
Sometimes, there's special care needed (like with the ffp-scripts package). Before upgrading packages, you should have a look at the ChangeLog for specific instructions.
Currently, the ffp-base package needs special attention. It contains all the busybox links, and conflicts at least with coreutils. If you have coreutils installed, ffp-base will overwrite many of the coreutils programs with links to busybox. I therefore recommend to not upgrade ffp-base unless you have a specific reason to do so.

PS: How about adding the info to your readme....
PPS: If you don't mind (I'm sure you dont') I will add it to the wiki as soon as I have time...
