So with the recent release of apvlv 0.1.0, I have decided to drop maintaining it.
I believe it now supports UMD file reading of some sort, and this requires the whole the PSP toolchain to be packaged and submitted to the repo, which is something I have no interest in doing whatsoever, as I haven't even used the software in months.
Any takers (TUs of course)?

Hello,
what about not supporting umd files? There is an configure-option "--without-umd"?
I can take it back, but I am not interested in supporting umd, too.

I was contemplating doing that, but I assumed that that was considered a "downstream modification", and would take away some functionality of the software, therefore not allowed.
I have no problem keeping it if I do not have to build with UMD support.
Regards, Brad
You don't have to bring that, if some functionality can be modified using configure/make commands, there's no one who can complain, upstream made it possible, so it is obviously also in their intent to let people build it with features they need. If a user needs it, but not the majority of users, well, we have abs, not much of a deal to do a modified rebuild for what one needs. Though I'm a bit confused, I myself own a PSP (old FAT/1000 model) and UMDs are the "caged" hardware disks, an ebook reader for this? Sure they don't mean another format for document files? -- Jabber: atsutane@freethoughts.de Blog: http://atsutane.freethoughts.de/ Key: 295AFBF4 FP: 39F8 80E5 0E49 A4D1 1341 E8F9 39E4 F17F 295A FBF4
