------- Comment #4 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-01-19 06:57 MST ------- Yes, please do take a recent source RPM or source tarball and try the patch. If you use rpmbuild, you can get it to apply the patch automatically after unpacking the source tarball that comes with the SRPM. Put the patch in SOURCES/ of your RPM-building arena, and name it in rsync.spec like this: Patch0: delete-only-in-directories.diff Then insert after the %setup line: %patch0 -p0 There's a testsuite that you can run with "make test" in a built rsync source tree, either one you make manually or the one rpmbuild makes in BUILD/. That will check that the patch doesn't break other features. But this might be putting the carriage before the horse, as I'm still hoping Wayne will weigh in as to whether my patch is the right way to fix the problem. I think a "dry-run" test case should be added that tests the dry run feature comprehensively on -vv verbosity and makes sure it produces the same output as a real run in a number of borderline cases, such as the one in this bug. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
