New securityonion packages

New versions of the following packages are now available!
securityonion-nsmnow-admin-scripts
securityonion-sguild-add-user
securityonion-sostat
These new packages resolve the following issues:

Issue 370: soup: a script to handle Ubuntu/SO updates properly (mysql-server and pfring)
You can now run a single command to update your system without having to worry about mysql/pfring updates:
sudo soup
Issue 323: Create sguild-passwd-user script
You can now reset a user's Sguil/Squert/ELSA password using the following:
sudo nsm_server_user-passwd
Issue 363: netsniff-ng: log and print statistics
At the next daily restart, netsniff-ng will begin using the --verbose option to log statistics.  sostat has been updated to report on those statistics:
sudo sostat
Thanks
Thanks to Jon Schipp for submitting the netsniff-ng patches for the NSM and sostat scripts!
Thanks to JP Bourget for submitting the sguild-passwd-user patches!
Thanks to the following for testing the new packages!
