We had several poor option-parsing actions in our ./nbdkit wrapper: Attempting './nbdkit --filter' went into an infloop with growing memory, because bash treats 'shift 2' when $# as a soft error (which we ignored) without even shifting 1, such that $# never decreases but $args[] continues to grow (dash, on the other hand, follows the POSIX recommendation of a hard error with

Hi. I finally decided it was really time to stop being lazy and really move away from gmail. After I have a server in my basement using power, etc. So I turned on the imap provided - and did not quite cry - it will have to do for now, but imap2 is wanting. A real server yes, but not Linux. (Using linux would require another server AND I would feel I am being lazy again). So, I downloaded

The existing implementation admitted that it was not very robust in the face of garbage input (including, but not limited to, the the fact that the scanf() family has undefined behavior on integer overflow). Tighten things up by reimplementing the function. The old comment mentioned the 'human*' interface from gnulib; we can't use that for licensing reasons; so my rewrite is done

The existing implementation admitted that it was not very robust in the face of garbage input; tighten things up by reimplementing the function, and add testsuite coverage to ensure further tweaks do not break things. The testsuite additions were interesting - we didn't have any easy way to link against a subset of the src/ files (all previous uses of the util functions have been through

v2 turned out to be much more involved, as I ended up fixing several things along the way that I noticed while debugging a feature addition.

Hi Rich, I noticed that libguestfs's cfg.mk had an old (and relatively inefficient) version of the rule that checks for empty lines at EOF. The one in maint.mk is much more efficient: >From cf93f04a980ec01ef37db9a0d4c7b99015169eee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Meyering <meyering at redhat.com> Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2012 11:49:34 +0200 Subject: [PATCH libguestfs] maint: remove a

The Wiki page has been SSL-only for a few days to a week or so. [perhaps this is by design, I don't know - but it is different than it was a week or more ago.] But the link to it from the main samba.org page is wrong and the suggested link doesn't get you to the wiki either. [It goes to CIFS.ORG.] Most of us can find our way - but it probably needs addressing sometime soon. -Greg

Also, what make / model SIP phone do you recommended that would allow us to configure the phones to work on alternate ports (or is this a standard
