Nothing stupid about my comments. :-P The facts are there for anyone to look and see for themselves. Vincent posted a couple of directory listings to demonstrate the basic problem. The 1.7.0 tarballs ARE dirty, that's a fact. They work (mostly) by accident rather than design. Raster was arguing that coz it works for him, and it takes him hours to roll a release, that we should just pretend there is nothing wrong. That's a stupid comment. He also made a few other stupid comments that I wont bother to go into. I'm saying that any one can plainly see the problem if they bother to look, and that people should actually look and make up their own minds, since raster refuses to fix it. Nothing stupid about that. For people that care about making packages from clean tarballs, Thomas is correct, extra work will be needed to create those clean tarballs yourself. I'm guessing that Thomas did his job as a package maintainer properly and actually looked, then came to the same conclusion that I did. My conclusion is that working by accident is not a solid enough base for me to trust in my work. The SVN however is fine, I trust it, just not the released 1.7.0 tarballs. > > e.g. alarm, uptime, tclock and forecasts modules do work for me and > > i guess, there are more modules, which do work just fine. > > ok, tclock is weird as regular clock module in core should do it all. Regular clock module in digital mode shows a rather huge flippy thing instead of a nice and small bit of text. If you don't want a huge digital clock, then tclock does a much better job. Regular clock also does not offer as much configuration for the digital version as tclock. Regular clock does not do it all. -- A big old stinking pile of genius that no one wants coz there are too many silver coated monkeys in the world.
