Updated to new version and website.

Nothing seems to have really changed.

Patched and fixed.

Updated gcc version needed new includes (<cstdint>)

I maintained the same tag and the code as close as possible.

updfparser was upgraded to the current commit

gourou-git continues to work since the upstream has corrected the issue.

The other package knock-bin is just this one with a temporary anonymous account for each download, therefore bypassing the login step.

In my opinion that might look suspicious.

I'm going to pin the usage comment to the top.

This worked perfectly, many thanks! I couldn't run adept_activate for a few hours because the Adobe server was down, so if you get timeouts when you run it, just try again later. Once I was able to activate, the whole process worked smoothly.

How do run it? I can find no examples/documentation on how it's run in shell.
