Program Version Syncer
Program Version Syncer (pvs) downloads new versions of packages based on their version numbers from either FTP or HTTP servers. It extracts the version number from packages that have already been downloaded by the user against the version number from the packages that reside on a server. If patches are provided to take it the existing package up to the newest version, only these will be downloaded.

Changes: A couple of annoying little problems have been fixed. When one runs pvs for the first time, none of the databases were be created, and no error was printed either. This has been fixed. Now, when downloading files, a progress bar is drawn and the download rate is also printed, together with the percentage. This finally enlightens the user on what's happening on huge downloads. A large number of memory leaks have also been fixed.

Changes: Most of the program was rewritten from scratch and should work better, although a lot of rough edges still exist in the code.
