Anyhow I prefer an ugly workaround to a crash ;-)
I don't share that preference.
The point is with these kind of projects where a lot of ppl are
submitting parts of code, there is a big chance that someone doesn't
understand the full code. So when another but appears, one is tempted to
make a fix on top of that, without touching the underlying code.
The result if such patches usually is a pile of spagetti where noone
understands what the real functionlity was.
I prefer to solve problems at the source, even it means that will take
longer
Well, so let me qualify: I prefer an ugly workaround as long as it is
clearly marked as an ugly workaround in need of a proper solution.
Since I really don't understand the full code, I have no other option at
the moment than apply that patch.
Bye
