As you may have seen from the recent volume of bug reports and patches, there is still plenty of room for improvement in parted, so if you're inclined, we would most welcome patches. However, while a bug-fixing patch is often very welcome, without a corresponding addition or matching adjustment to the test suite, I usually will not (or cannot) apply it immediately. That means I end up waiting until I have time to write or adjust a test script to exercise the new bug, and that tends to take longer than I would like. If you're interested in helping, start by git-cloning the sources and then read the two files, README-hacking and HACKING. Then find an unaddressed bug-report on the mailing lists ([email protected] and [email protected]) and if it doesn't have a test suite addition, try to write one. Follow one of the many examples in the tests/ directory. _______________________________________________ parted-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/parted-devel
