I've just finished applying the 1.5.3 upgrade to my 1.5.0 sources. I cheated ( :-) ) by doing the upgrade on my VAX; I haven't moved the stuff over to MINIX to try compiling it yet. Anyway, the list of problems: 1) As previously reported, mined1.c has a different crc for 1.5.3, but mined1.c.cdif is empty except for the first two lines. 2) The patches for lib/posix are a mess! (At least what I've got is) posix.cdif contains a batch of diffs that patch reports to be reversed patches. The crc's seem to match if posix.cdif is not applied! 3) More lib/posix trouble: fdopen.c.cdif, getgrent.c.cdif, and getpwent.c.cdif each caused patch to claim these were reversed patches. The crc's seemed to match if these patches weren't applied. I've had no trouble patching commands/ls.c or commands/more.c on my VAX. -- Guy Helmer ...!uunet!loft386!dsuvax!ghelmer Dakota State University Computing Services helmer@sdnet.bitnet Software Engineering: "'How to program if you cannot.'" - Dijkstra
