A major version update has been released for update-hosts bringing it to version 3.
Version 3 is largely compatible with the older version 2, except that the script now requires you to select what is outputted from the tool, instead of outputting a hosts file by default. The tool can output hosts, dnsmasq, and ipset formatted files. Support for changing file names, output IP addresses, and adding additional sources on the fly is still present, but the unbreak list has been dropped as it was too far out of date to maintain accurately.
The script has been largely simplified and much of the output noise has been removed. Instead of logging each individual step, the script only outputs errors and success points. The average user doesn't care that the script is currently stripping line endings or parsing IP addresses, so that logging information has been removed.
