update-hosts-updates

Update hosts has been updated to (hopefully) remove the reliance on GNU specific extension to command line tools like grep and sed. As a result, the script should run on systems that do not specifically use the GNU tools, although I'm sure most users will not notice a difference.

The sources list has been updated, one of the ipset sources was removed and iprange optimization is automically applied if you have the FireHOL iprange program installed in your PATH.

Other news, I would like to make a Power Manager release soon as it brings many improvements for normal and rooted users, as well as the automatic control of Airplane mode which is a big battery help.

PadLock has some improvements which allow it to not disturb applications on the lock screen, as well as purge any old applications that are no longer installed.

ZapTorch, WordWiz, Home Button, and Pasterino have all received general bugfixes to keep them up to date with the latest version of Android.

git-ssh was also updated to remove the need for risky evals by using a custom implementation of arrays in POSIX sh.

iptables-restrictor was updated to include better support for logging when packets are restricted and is better at automatically handling UNIX groups for you.
