sacrificial byte order mark

I do not see any problem with the behavior of adoupdate. If I say

adoupdate

It tells me that 5 packages need updating, and they are listed in r
(pkglist).


If I say

adoupdate xml_tab

(which needs updating)  it places xml_tab in r(pkglist).

If I say

adoupdate quack

(a nonexistent package) it places quack in r(pkglist).

If I say

adoupdate ivreg2

(which does not need updating) it places ivreg2 in r(pkglist).

What is the nature of the problem?

In any case, adoupdate is part of official Stata, so if you can
document a bug, report it to [email protected].
