New beancounter release 0.8.3

A new beancounter version has been uploaded to Debian, CPAN and my beancounter pages here; the Freshmeat beancounter record has also been updated.

This version contains a few fixes and enhancements: we can now use FX data backpopulation via the PACIFIC server at the Sauder School of Business at UBC in Vancouver. Also, a new command 'lspositions' was added to show non-aggregated positions; thanks to Robert Schmied, we now catch (bad) market caps in trillions (as sometimes seen from the LSE); we updated the default currency mappings for Yahoo!'s semi-broken FX data service and make a few code cleanups and fixes here and there.

New smtm bug fix releases 1.6.7 and 1.6.8

Minor (Debian) bug fix releases 1.6.7 and 1.6.8 went out for smtm, and to CPAN to keep things in sync. As we no longer need to depends on an explicit Tk::PNG package--it appears that the default Perl-Tk package can now deal with PNG images. No actual code was changed, only the Debian dependency (and, a minor mistake, Build-Dependency) were updated so no need to grab the CPAN versions.
