Groff Bug Report
GROFF VERSION: 1.19.2 as well as the CVS version from Feb 3, 2008 MACHINE: x86 PC OS: Scientific Linux 4.2 (same as Redhat RHEL 4.2) COMPILER: gcc 3.4.6 INPUT FILES: Two files are attached: refdb -- a refer database with two entries test_input -- the input to refer COMMAND LINE: refer -p refdb test_input DESCRIPTION OF INCORRECT BEHAVIOUR: With version 1.19.2 as well as the CVS version from Feb 3, 2008, the et-al feature does not work correctly. With version 1.18.1.3, everything works fine. With version 1.18.1.3, the text output is: ------------------------------------------------------------ .lf 1 test_input .lf 10 test_input Refer to Revisiting the Sequential Programming Model (Bridges et al., 2007) .lf 14 test_input Refer to Scalable Session Locking (Burns et al., 2001) .lf 19 test_input ------------------------------------------------------------ Note that both labels were properly abbreviated with "et al". With version 1.19.2, the text output is: ------------------------------------------------------------ .lf 1 test_input .lf 10 test_input Refer to Revisiting the Sequential Programming Model (Bridges, Vachharajani, Zhang, Jablin, and August, 2007) .lf 14 test_input Refer to Scalable Session Locking (Burns, Rees, Stockmeyer, and Long, 2001) .lf 19 test_input ------------------------------------------------------------ Note the neither labels was properly abbreviated with "et al". I get the same incorrect output with the CVS version from Feb 3, 2008. _________________________________________________________________ Connect and share in new ways with Windows Live. http://www.windowslive.com/share.html?ocid=TXT_TAGHM_Wave2_sharelife_012008
