New in Velocity 1.0.3 (Jul 4, 2016)
- Emergency fix for docset installation exceptions. A change in the way docsets are packaged that should have not mattered unfortunately managed to find a gap in the implementation of untar that Velocity uses. This has been fixed. Unfortunately, this may cause you to be unable to start Velocity without an exception. If so, you will need to download the update manually from the home page. More improvements are coming in this area, but this release allows you to start with docset errors and will show the message "">>>Docset is broken!" for any docsets with a problem. These docsets must be removed and re-installed. The easiest way to do that is use the Add / Download view, click on Remove and then click on Add for the docset. You will see a message that the docset folder is not empty and you should select OK to continue.
