Argh. There was a line-number botch in the 13-Dec-1990 patch. It is thoroughly harmless -- patch will simply balk at making a change in a comment in newsspool.c -- but it's a nuisance. I have sent out a cancel on the original patch and posted a corrected version. For those who want to know who to blame, we've recently put the C News distribution and patches under RCS rather than the ad-hoc scheme we used before, and the inability to turn the RCS keyword expansion off is proving to be a serious headache. For those who are real patch enthusiasts, here's a patch for the patch (!): *** 13-Dec-1990.orig Thu Dec 13 19:13:10 1990 --- 13-Dec-1990 Thu Dec 13 19:13:12 1990 *************** *** 832,836 **** --- input/newsspool.c Sun Oct 28 02:18:58 1990 *************** ! *** 4,11 **** * The -i option relies on the parent setting (and exporting) $PATH. * --- 832,836 ---- --- input/newsspool.c Sun Oct 28 02:18:58 1990 *************** ! *** 4,8 **** * The -i option relies on the parent setting (and exporting) $PATH. * -- "The average pointer, statistically, |Henry Spencer at U of Toronto Zoology points somewhere in X." -Hugh Redelmeier| henry@zoo.toronto.edu utzoo!henry
