Description:
This is a heads up that the next release of Picard, 2.1.0, will support a built-in autoupdate, which for distribution packages probably should be disabled.

To disable it ad the "--disable-autoupdate" parameter to "setup.py install".

Actually you could even already set this option in current release version if you want to. The option already exists, it just does nothing.

Just for clarification, because I wrote autoupdate above: This is a mere update checker which shows if there is a newer release available and notifies the user. Still, doesn't make much sense for distribution packages :D The "--disable-autoupdate" disables both the check and the UI for it.
