+ user can see the program's command line by using ps.
+

+ snf-image can output progress and error messages to external programs

+ non-empty value

+ detected at runtime
+ * Create package list in snf-update-helper every time debootstrap is

+ list to determine if it is OK to use this cache file or not.
+ * Add mechanism for overwritting the helper's Unattend.xml file
+
+2012-03-29, v0.3.6
