Package: ratpoison
Version: 1.3.0-5
Severity: normal
If you try to use the tmpwm command but pass it as an argument, a path
to a non-existant file, ratpoison goes into an infinite loop waiting for
the child process (which was never started) to exit.
This is easily fixed by this simple patch:
diff src/actions.c.orig src/actions.c
3252c3252
< } while (child != pid);
---
> } while ((child != -1) && (child != pid));
I'm forarding a patch upstream as well.
