]] Ian Jackson | As the original author, and still the author of most of the code by | bulk, I think my view should be determinative. It is of course a bad | idea to reformat code in a free software project.
[...] | > 80 chars? | | 79. But many of the lines are from an older age when I used to use up | to 90 because I was BATSHIT INSANE. One shouldn't change those unless | one happens to be changing the code anyway, because reformatting for | the sake of it is always bad. I believe this is a crucial point: It's fine to reformat code if you're changing it anyway, but please don't reformat it just for the heck of it (since that's problematic wrt bisecting and such). (Oh, and I disagree with your formatting, but I'm not a dpkg developer, just a patch contributor, so I'm not going to stir that pot, not now at least.) -- Tollef Fog Heen UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
