I just updated apt (Advanced Package Tools) to the new 0.5.4 version in
the RedHat 7.2 and 7.3 repositories (8.0 was already using 0.5.4 but there
is also an upgrade to the newest revision <cnc9>).
So, here's what to do:
a) update apt only:
apt-get update
apt-get install apt apt-devel
b) for RedHat 7.2 and 7.3 users: update your /etc/apt/apt.conf file with
the new template that is now in the web site at:
http://www-ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/apt/configuration/apt.conf-0.5.4
The update is not critical but it will prevent a couple of warning
messages in the output of apt-get because options have changed names.
c) test drive it, for example by installing the new version of synaptic
(for RedHat 7.2 and 7.3 users):
apt-get update
apt-get install synaptic
The website update is still in the future (next hour?) but I wanted to get
this notice out now because the repository has been changed.
Enjoy!
