During the Labor Day weekend, I tinkered around with the configuration
of our news software here at sunpix.east.sun.com. During this tinkering,
I found two possible bugs.
The first I found in ifuncs.c. At line 305, I found this line of code.
> appfile = appmsgid = FALSE
This line basically turns off the I and F options in the third field of
any 'LIBDIR/sys' file entry. End result, no filenames get logged for
batching.
The second I found in sendbatch.sh. In lines 89 thru 97, the shell
variable '$du' gets set if, and only if, certain conditions are meet.
Later on (line 117) '$du" is used to compute '$bytes_this_batch' and
this will fail, if $du wasn't set.
What I might be suffering from, is the slow deviation from true that
continual patching can incure. Can anyone check and see if they have
the same problem.
