Changes since version 1.3.16:

in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
- Parse eBay pages properly again
- A parsing error leading to a segmentation fault is fixed (patch
from Klaus Singvogel)
- Get the snipe key 60 seconds before sniping because this key becomes
stale.
- Snipes do not try to get a snipe key at startup or setup.
- Set the proxy during startup. Otherwise a "Network error" is issued
at startup behind a proxy.
- Workaround a bug with german umlauts and other ascii > 127 in the
details windows. They are simply removed.
- Recognize shifting end times of auctions.
- User listings:
- The auction-id was read as "unsigned long" (4 Byte) instead of
"unsigned long long" (8 Byte). Due to that truncation some
auction-ids were not handled correctly.
- Ebay places linebreaks at the worst places in its pages: the
parser did not remove them all. So the auction id was not
found.
- Obtain snipe-key just when necessary, not earlier.
- New feature: Snipe groups
