Ami Update equivalent for os 3.x?

[carvedeye]

Hi all I remember when I had my sam440ep and was running os4 there was a program kind of like windows update called amiupdate and was wondering if there is a os 3.x equivalent or something similar?

Get Grunch.

Get Grunch.

What helps Grunch for OS3 if nobody adds packages to it...

And on AROS Vision it does not work so for me it is not interesting

But the framework is there.

There is also the one built into Amikit. I cant remeber its name, but it is fully functional, and works great.

[AmiKit]

It's called Live Update

Is there away of downloading/installing Live Update, I don't have Amikit installed, or are the updates only for Amikit?

Last time I checked, it was only available in Amikit, and he program can be set to work with other distros and update websites.

Will have a lookie, would be nice to have it pull updates say from aminet. A central update place would be a good thing.
It's frustrating trying to find updates, especially when most are hidden in forum posts. Even then some of the posts the links and attachments no longer work :-(

Given that all new os3.x updates are unofficial, written by random people there's no real way it can work.
The exceptions being for distros like amikit where there's control of sorts over the content in updates.
Aminet, or something like grunch are the closest alternatives.
