Hello list!
I have just found one more long, long standing bug in the
codebase, and that makes quite an impressive list of fixes since
v14.8.9:
224d858 popen.c:_file_save(): adjust partial [41250b1] cherry-pick
41250b1 FIX: no O_APPEND for .bz2/.xz/*file-hook-load*! Use lseek(2)!!..
This should actually fix all uses of compressed boxes and
*file-hook-** use cases. Independent of the used C library that
is to say. It enables me to say
set file-hook-load-xz_pgp='gpg -d | xz -dc' \
file-hook-save-xz_pgp='xz -zc | gpg -e'
on a GNU/Linux system without ending up with corrupted boxes,
i.e., a complaining gpg(1) that says that says so.
98cf903 FIX: really_rewind() for pre POSIX Issue 7
23e8697 Fix *quote-fold* (on GNU/Linux iswspace() does not return boolean!)
e65db06 FIX n_verr(): cannot reuse va_list..
75982 bidi_info_needed(): no variation selectors etc. -- CText, where are you!
5c458cc FIX MBOX append (since ever (nail 11.16, 2004-11-18])!)..
e5591f2 THANKS: Vincent Lefevre
407a705 Actively filter out U+00AD characters (Vincent Lefevre)..
78083c0 HTML filter: filter out some characters
530e8 FIX n_utf8_to_utf32() sequence length checks (since [558d8b8], 2015-03!)
6afff81 FIX possible intwrap caused delays (for mailboxes with size == 1)
8b85b96 Fix compiler warning of [7f7bae1] (Fix `z' (Tim))
43ad441 THANKS: update mail address of Tim (trondd)
7f7bae1 Fix `z' (Tim)
So v14.8.10, «Anachalcos» (one more very important Dung Beetle)
will have to happen soon, i'm just awaiting some more tests.
I would however urge every user of [master] or [next] to update.
Reports are welcome.
I hope to be able to merge [crawl] into [next] in August, which
brings very much fun (disclaimer: for receptive persons), and
i guess could already be released as v14.9 if the three features
that i had promised to implement before (temporarily) switching
away to S-{CText,Roff} were still missing. ._. Apologies to
Sergey and those members of the Roff community which would like to
see progress! I hope i can make it.
