Version 1.7.b1 - 18/Jan/2016

Well, I think that we can mark that version as Beta.  It does not contains
  new features, but it was done a large work of bugfixes and improvements.
  A special thanks is for phenixia2003 and yars068 for code contributing and
  for many other for ideas and testing. It's the time for the tests, to find
  for bugs or someother improvement.

so it also impact remove and clean-system actions.
- Improved performance searching packages and preparing the package list in
large install/upgrade.
- Improved 'slackpkg search' that now shows all packages matching from all
repositories, not just that in priority; it will mark as 'masked' the
packages that would not selected in install/upgrade mode. Also always show
repository source for official packages.
- Quick output for Cached Download..
- Does not show notices to remember to run 'slackpkg update' when running
slackpkg check-updates.

Version 1.7.a1 - 04/Jan/2016
It's the time for a stable version of slackpkg+. Currently it is just a
development version to fix older feature and add/test new. I'll need more
test possible to make it bugfree ;).
- Code reordering; now slackpkg+ is only slackpkgplus.sh
- BugFix: slackpkg did give 'grep: write error' when running with "sudo su -".
- Added repositories; improved checkrepos.sh
- BugFix: slackpkg give 'grep: write error' when running with "sudo su -"
- SecurityFix: Strict GPG Check. Packages MUST to be signed with root-GPG-KEY.
If can disable it via CHECKGPG in slackpkgplus.sh; see README
- Strict GPG Check: Packages and metadata in one repository should be signed
with just the root GPG-KEY. This improve security. Some repository might
want to contains eterogeneous package. In this case, set STRICTGPG=off.
See README.

SEARCH FUNCTION IMPROVEMENT
The command "slackpkg search ..." when finds two packages with the same name
but with different versions, it will show all so you know all repositories
that contains that package, not just the first in priority list.
It will mark all versions not in priority (i.e. that install/upgrade will not
show) as 'masked'. To install that packages you must explicitly specify the
repository name with "slackpkg install/upgrade repository:package".
