Typically more recent versions are available from our repository, that is
automatically populated with release and nightly builds - but you shouldn't mix
OBS packages with our repository. More information, as always, on the wiki:

Yeah, but I don't even want to get it right. I'd rather spawn bash and let it do
the parsing, since that's providing the behavior we actually expect and use
currently.

I've been thinking about this, yeah. I'd generally like to avoid writing
temporary files and pushing them to the server for every command that the client
executes, but unless I can come up with a better solution I'll probably have to
go with that. As always, no ETA on that, though. Might take quite some time to
get this done.
