GNU Source Installer (sourceinstall) 2.0 released

I am happy to announce the availability of GNU Source
Installer 2.0 (libsrcinst-2.0, sourceinstall-2.0,
sourceinstall-gtk-2.0).

Downloads are available on ftp.gnu.org:

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/sourceinstall/libsrcinst-2.0.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/sourceinstall/sourceinstall-2.0.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/sourceinstall/sourceinstall-gtk-2.0.tar.gz

Install in this order.

This is mainly a bug fix release.
A lot of problems have been found and fixed in the
last test release. User-visible changes from 2.0-rc2
are close to none, but note that the default
installation prefix for users has been changed to
~/usr (in order to try to reduce confusion). Default
prefix for root installations remains /usr/local.

GNU Source Installer is a complete source package
management tool, useful for both developers and
regular users.

It builds on top of GNU installation policies to
provide package validation, installation, tracking,
checking, upgrade and uninstallation in a
Unix-portable way.

The project needs help, in at least 4 areas.
