Mandriva Easy Updater German

What I decided to do, with permission from briareus himself of course, is take the script and turn it into a bash script, instead of a big one line command. What the script does is take the place of having to do urpmi --auto-select, updatedb, update menus and a couple of other commands. Makes it to where all you have to do is type one little word to execute the script and you are good to. He agreed, and below is the new code.

What you need to do is open up your favorite editor and paste the code in the box below into your editor of choice. Save the file as updater and then copy it over to /usr/bin and perform the following command as root user:

chmod +x /usr/bin/updater

To run the script, just type 'updater' as root in a terminal. Below is the actual code:

Thanks to drivamgr2005 and his translation to the German language of this script:
