offpunk 3.2
============

unless software has "new version" notification, i'm pretty
terrible at updating software. i guess if it works then why
bother?

whilst i was trying and failing to share my offpunk config via
smb mount (topic for a separate post), i realised it might be time 
to see if there's a new version of offpunk (i was on v3.1), it 
turns out there was: v3.2[1]!

so naturally i tried 

```
uv tool install --upgrade
# noises that computers make whilst installing software
offpunk --version
Offpunk 3.1
``` 

and instead got a couple of python dependencies updated. a quick 
check on pypi[2] revealed that only 3.1 has been packaged.

all is not loss because "uv" can also install from the
code repo:

```
uv tool install git+https://git.sr.ht/\~lioploum/offpunk
# noises that computers make whilst installing software
offpunk --version
Offpunk 3.2
```

because you're installing from source you may need to install some
system dependencies (which is why pypi packages are preferrably).
so if the install fails check out the install from source docs[3].

update: it looks like pypi package is not maintained by the dev 
team and is looking for new maintainers[4]. so installing from 
source is the way forward for me.
