[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: shutdown 2.0-1

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: shutdown 2.0-1

[Frank Fesevur]

Hi,

I've just updated the version of shutdown to v2.0-1 and it can be
found at a server near you.


FULL CHANGELOG (since shutdown-1.10-1)
======================================

* Added --install to install Windows Updates during shutdown/reboot.

  The InitiateShutdown() Windows API call is used for this. This function is
  only available from Windows 6.0 (aka Vista or Server 2008) or higher.
  To assure backwards compatibility with WinXP and Server 2003,
  InitiateShutdown() is loaded dynamically at runtime. Since Cygwin 2.6
  support for Windows XP and Server 2003 has been dropped, so this backward
  compatibility will be removed in a future release.

* Added --hybrid to shutdown in hybrid mode. Hybrid is the default shutdown
  method with shutting down with the UI of Windows 8.x and higher.

* The default shutdown messages will give more information on what is about
  to happen.

* User can supply his own shutdown message on the command line.

Enjoy!

Regards,
Frank

There is a build or packaging error somewhere with the 64bit version:
the shutdown.exe delivered with the x86_64 package is in fact a 32bit
executable that refuses to work in 64bit Cygwin.  Can you please correct
and re-release the package?


Regards,
Achim.

Thanks for spotting.

There was a problem in the Makefile. I will re-release the package ASAP.
