I'll be posting a proposed replacement patch for this one in a
few
minutes. Please try it out as soon as possible. I haven't gone through
7/7 yet, but with the small changes I've squashed in elsewhere, plus the
3.5/7 I posted and the 6/7 refactor I'm about to post, definitely the
first 6 are ready to push.
Laine,
Sorry for the errors that have been caused in this patch and thank you for
refactoring the code. I have tested the patches 3.5 and 6 that you have sent
and everything works fine. Do you want me to post another iteration
of the patch series?
(By the way, a general note - I've been running "make check" and
"make
syntax-check" after applying each of your patches in succession, and
came up with a *lot* of errors (see my add-on patch that I want to
squash into 3/7). In particular, you seem to end up with a lot of lines
that have trailing blanks - if you run "make syntax-check" on each
patch, it will catch those. There are occasional slipups, but in general
every patch is supposed to pass both make check and make syntax-check
(and for a patch series, both of those should complete after applying
each patch, not just after the end of the series).
Sorry I did not realize I had to perform these checks as well.
I will make sure I perform these checks henceforth.
