[pca] [pca-news] New release: 20080909-01

[Martin Paul]

As for pca updates with a pca proxy there are two things:

Updating pca-proxy.cgi: If you have "update=auto" set in the pca.conf 
used by pca-proxy.cgi, the proxy will keep itself up-to-date. It will 
download and replace itself with new version of pca when they are 
available. pca-proxy.cgi should better not be a link in that case. 
Alternatively, you can link it to e.g. /usr/sbin/pca (like you already 
do) and keep that up-to-date as described below.

Updating pca: To update pca on the client through the proxy, you set 
pcaurl to point at the proxy (just like xrefurl/patchurl). When running 
"pca --update now" on the client, it will contact the pca proxy. This 
will check pca's home for the most recent version, download it and store 
it in patchdir. It will then deliver the file to the client, which 
updates itself.

Your configuration files look OK. Can you please add "debug=1" to both 
configuration files (on the proxy and on the client) and then run "pca 
--update now" on the client. The client will show it's debug output on 
screen, the proxy will write it to /tmp/pca-proxy-debug.txt. Please post 
it for further analysis.

Martin.
