Asure 1.00 released

I have released version 1.00 of my Asure file integrity program. This is a small python program that captures file hashes and permissions over a directory tree, and can be used to either look for changes (similar to tripwire), or verify that the files are properly restored when testing backups. It is primarily intended for the later. It has an important command update which only rehashes files that have been touched since the last run, which allows the database to be kept update to date fairly quickly.

This release mostly fixes a warning with newer versions of Python, and has a proper setup.py to make it easier to package. The page above also has a link to an Arch Linux User Repository (AUR) package that allows it to easily be installed on Arch Linux.
