  <description>This update for fdupes fixes the following issues:

- Do not use sqlite, as this pulls sqlite into Ring0 at no real benefit performance wise
- Update to 2.3.0:
  * Add --cache option to speed up file comparisons
  * Use nanosecond precision for file times, if available
  * Fix compilation issue on OpenBSD
  * Other changes like fixing typos, wording, etc.
- update to 2.2.1:
  * Fix bug in code meant to skip over the current log file when --log option is given
  * Updates to copyright notices in source code
  * Add --deferconfirmation option
  * Check that files marked as duplicates haven't changed during program execution before deleting them
  * Update documentation to indicate units for SIZE in command-line options
  * Move some configuration settings to configure.ac file
- Fixes for the new wrapper:
  * Order duplicates by name, to get a reproducible file set (bsc#1197484)
  * Remove redundant order parameter from fdupes invocation
  * Modernize code, significantly reduce allocations
  * Exit immediately when mandatory parameters are missing
  * Remove obsolete buildroot parameter
  * Add some tests for the wrapper
- Do not link the files as given by fdupes, but turn them into relative links
- Support multiple directories given (as glob to the macro)
- Handle symlinks (-s argument) correctly
- Simplify macros.fdupes to speed up the process (bsc#1195709)
