lwall@sdcrdcf.UUCP (Larry Wall) (06/13/87)
System: warp version 7.0
Patch #: 3
Priority: HIGH
Subject: Configure doesn't run right
From: everybody
Description:
I neglected to rerun metaconfig before making the final version of
the kits, so Configure was out of date and inconsistent, and doesn't
run right. A rookie trick.
Fix: From rn, say "| patch -d DIR", where DIR is your warp source
directory. Outside of rn, say "cd DIR; patch <thisarticle".
If you don't have the patch program, apply the following by hand,
or get patch.
If patch indicates that patchlevel is the wrong version, you may need
to apply one or more previous patches, or the patch may already
have been applied. See the patchlevel.h file to find out what has or
has not been applied. In any event, don't continue with the patch.
If you are missing previous patches they can be obtained from me:

(Note that the distributed version starts at patchlevel 2.)
If you send a mail message of the following form it will greatly speed
processing:
Subject: Command
@SH mailpatch PATH warp 7.0 LIST
^ note the c
where PATH is a return path FROM ME TO YOU in bang notation, and LIST
is the number of one or more patches you need, separated by spaces,
commas, and/or hyphens. Saying 35- says everything from 35 to the end.

I received patch #3, but never received patches 1 and 2. If anyone out there
could email them to me I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance for your
help.

If you had read the documentation for warp7 you would have seen the item about the distribution already being at patch level 2 (also look at patchlevel.h). -- "To prevent having to tell fools to RTFM don't let on you WTFM to begin with."

If you look at the source to warp, you'll find that patches 1 and 2 were installed prior to it being shipped -- there ARE no separate patches 1 & 2, in other words. You can verify this by lookint at the patch level in patchlevel.h. chuq (what, look for myself? nahhh....) Chuq Von Rospach chuq@sun.COM Delphi: CHUQ Now, where did my ex-wife put my Fairy Dust?
