8.0.3 released today

bobcook

Hi everyone,

We released version 8.0.3 today, all machines running 8.0.x should update automatically at some point (might take a few hours to reach your machine). In addition to the normal detection improvements we fixed the AutoUpdate crash that plagued G3 users, improved the behavior for "stuck scans" some people have seen in the GUI, and also includes general stability improvements.

We are still on track to release 8.0.4 with fixes for the reports of kernel panics at the end of May.

    The data repos for both SAV 8 and SAV 7 cache local copies of the files in your physical area, meaning you'll need to wait for the local repo to be updated before you will get the most recent version.

    When doing a point upgrade, this is pulled from the local data repo, and the old software is disabled as part of the install process.  This means you should see your menu bar item disappear for a few seconds, and on-access scanning will halt for a few seconds.

    If this lasts longer than a couple of minutes, try restarting your computer to fully halt and re-initialize all processes -- it is possible that something has presented the new version from loading (this should not normally occur, as the update process is pretty agressive in ensuring the new version loads).

    If there are still problems at this point, please report them to this thread.
