Release Veil Nebula · KSP-CKAN/CKAN

Changes since v1.10.3

[GUI] Installed mods can now be exported as a "favourites list" via File -> Export Installed Mods. Imported favourites lists allow the user to choose which mods they get, and will install the latest versions available for the user's version of KSP. (Postremus, #972)
[GUI] Enter and escape can be used to accept and cancel changes when editing the command-line dialog (Postremus, #1318)
[GUI] Yes/no dialog boxes have a more descriptive title (plague006, #1312)
[GUI] Downloading a file to the cache shows the download in progress, and refreshes the contents viewer when complete (Postremus, #1231)
[GUI] On first start we always refresh the modlist, with an option to do so each time the CKAN is loaded (Postremus, #1285)
[Core] KSP instance names now default to the folder in which they're installed (Postremus, #1261)
[Core] Processing an updated mod list is now faster, and other speed enhancements (Postremus, #1229)
[Core] Metadata is now downloaded in .tar.gz rather than .zip format, resulting in much faster downloads (pjf, #1344)
[Spec] install_to can now target Ships/ subdirectories (dbent, #1243)

[GUI] Hitting cancel is much more likely to actually cancel an install-in-progress (Postremus, #1325)
[GUI] Fewer crashes when double-clicking on an auto-detected mod (Postremus, #1237)
[Cmdline] ckan compare fails more gracefully when called without arguments (Postremus, #1283)
[Cmdline] ckan show more accurately displays the cached filename (mgsdk, #1266)
[Core] We fail more gracefully when mod metadata can't be downloaded (Postremus, #1291)

[NetKAN] Cached files have more descriptive file extensions (dbent, #1308)
[NetKAN] A warning is generated if a file without a .netkan extension is processed (dbent, #1308)
[NetKAN] We better handle null values in retrieved metadata (dbent, #1324)
[NetKAN] Better handling of license strings with leading and trailing spaces (dbent, #1305)
[Core] We no longer try to use libcurl on systems where the .NET web classes are sufficient (dbent, #1294)

Windows users must have .NET 4.5 installed.
Linux users, please apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev or yum install libcurl-devel if you haven't done so.
Mac/Linux/Mono users: please mozroots --import --ask-remove if you're a new user, to update mono's certificate store.
This release was made in memory of Noirin; from star stuff we are made, and to star stuff we shall return.
