ExMan 0.5 released

I’ve just released ExMan 0.5. Actually, the code was in git master for quite some time now, but I got around of building RPMs only today. The source tar ball and RPMs are available at the usual Sourceforge.net download space.

Most notable changes are:

  • ExMan now conforms to XDG specification for storing data. Which means, the backend data files is now stored in $HOME/.local/share/data/ExManFile.txt instead of $HOME/.ExManFile.txt. The Qt API QDesktopServices::DataLocation provides platform/operating system agnostic location, so this works fine on GNU/Linux, Windows and MacOS X.
  • The old data file is automatically migrated to the new location so that you don’t have to manually do anything.
