So you can repeat the update process to 2.0.6 an infinite number of times. after doing it two to three times I noticed that there is no 2.0.6 it's probably just for internal tests so that the developers could check if it works.
There is however a changelog for 2.0.6. You can see it right before you begin the download of the update. When it says: there is a new version available it will also give an option to a button called "more information" with this button you will get the changelog (which was in this case: minor bug fixes).
many thanks review, I've just go over all the steps you wrote about (namely repeating the update a number of times, since in the "about" window I still had 2.0.5., though as you say with a different date), and was about to ask questions, but you've answered before I even put them

One thing though, now in the main home window I have a blank square, while I am pretty sure that with the "real" 2.0.5 had a link to the bookstore - I do not need it, but I wonder if there are missing features with this "fake" update.

EDIT: @Troll - please ignore my previous message, there is no 2.0.6 firmware as such!
