ShowEQ 5.6.1 for Live 9/20 or so

Announcing the release of ShowEQ version 5.6.1. This release cleans up handling of the hover death state. Now the map will properly follow you when you're dead and being dragged. There were also a couple other minor bug fixes. You'll note that your current ShowEQ is still working. Upgrade if you want to though! There were some big-ish changes so if you see any problems with corpses not being properly named or some such, please let me know.

purple (11/04/06)
-----------------
+ Updated version to 5.6.1
+ Fixed con range. Stupid double ++ error.
+ Redid gradients for red con colors
+ Cleaned up the hover-mode death handling by making movements valid, changing icon to a corpse, and made handling the respawn not cause unknowns
+ Added a hack for kernel versions after 2.6.18 that moved UTS_RELEASE
+ Fixed auras so they shouldn't show up unknown as much. New auras for people who are not in your group will still show as unknown, since the server doesn't announce them until you join the group.

Thanks, Tanner!

I clicked your HOWTO link and followed the instructions; even after the apt update, it will only download 5.6.0.0. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

This isn't the place for asking for help. That is what the helpdesk is for.
