Re: amstar regex does not work

It works for me.

Either it is a bug in your regex library or you are running an older 
amstar, its version is on the first line of the amstar debug file.

Hello @all,

I had a conversation with Dustin about amstar and the regex. Here is what we 
discussed:

I am using amstar due to a problem of gtar with zfs. So here is one entry of my 
daily email report:

? a etc/rcS.d/K34ncalogd link to etc/rc0.d/K34ncalogd

There are houndreds of them. But in amstar there is a regex that should match:

regcomp(&regex_hard, "^a (.*) link to", REG_EXTENDED|REG_NEWLINE);

I dont get it into my brain why it does not work. Adding a property to amstar 
in order to exclude this messages does not work either. Is anybody here knowing 
the code better?

Best regards,
Dennis
