To introduce something new that patch breaks something for somebody else that was previously working. I thought it was commonly accepted that it's then the author's (and possibly the committer's) responsibility to come up with something better to fix this regression. > Wouldn't that be a better option than introducing a regression? The regression was introduced with the patch. Not by reverting it. A revert gets my ACK if this bothers Holger enough in his workflow. I would suggest Holger and David-John should talk about a time-frame in which David-John can cook up a proper patch. Based on this information a decision should be made if a revert is necessary in the meantime or not. I trust Holger's judgment here. PS: David-John, the whole discussion is at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.openembedded/29524 _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
