Summary:                    lin --fix is executed after lunar update, but lin does not have the --fix option!
Description: 
I've been playing with Lunar for a while, and i noticed that lately, no
fixups are done after i install packages. So it turns out, lunar update
executes "lin --fix" but there is no --fix option in lin. also, lin just
displays "Nothing to do!" (as it does for any non-existing option), and
does nothing as promised :)

I tried using "lunar fix" but that just lists what is missing, without
actually fixing anything.

I fixed this sometime last week in both lunar core and theedge core, but i
didn't force an update, please re lin your coretools, and you should get a
fixed version.

ohh... you also mentioned that "lunar fix" doesn't do anything...

Well that i think hasn't been fix...
Sorry too fast again...

But i did move "lin --fix" to "lunar fix" last week :-)

ahmmm, coretools? I'm probably missing something, but i don't have
coretools in moonbase...did u mean "lunar"?

Some more notes:
1. i do have "fix" option for lunar, but nevertheless, lunar update seems
to execute "lin --fix" (same goes for lunar rebuild), which gives the
"Nothing to do!" message.
2. (I think this is closely related to this problem , so i won't open a
new bug) lin does not automatically lin some required dependencies and the
package that i'm trying to lin originally, fails because the required dep.
is not installed. As an example, lin vorbis-tools, should do lin libogg
(if libogg is not installed), but that does not happen. I've had tht
problem with many other packages

Isn't "lunar update" deprecated?  Shouldn't they be using "lunar renew"
instead?

No it's not

It's a shortcut onstead of doing "lin moonbase (theedge or lunar); lunar
renew"
But the thing is that "lunar update" only updated theedge/lunar if it's
nessesary.

So it's still perfectly valid to use that...
