Just enough precision to not have to wait months for a fixed version to be released. > [1] https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/poke.git/log/gnulib > [2] https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gettext.git/log/gnulib -- Dmitry Marakasov . 55B5 0596 FF1E 8D84 5F56 9510 D35A 80DD F9D2 F77D amd...@amdmi3.ru ..: https://github.com/AMDmi3
