Description Paul DeStefano 2016-09-18 22:27:52 UTC
Description of problem:
I haven't noticed this before and it definitely didn't happen what I started using twirssi.pl script.  But, now, I get these warning every time I load twirssi script.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
twirssi-2.6.3-4.fc24.noarch

How reproducible:
Always since recently

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install twirssi pkg
2. load twirssi.pl in irssi

Actual results:
15:16 Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE 
          in m/\${ <-- HERE |\$}/ at /home/pdestefa/.irssi/scripts/autorun/twirssi.pl line 325.

Comment 1 Julian C. Dunn 2016-09-21 03:12:38 UTC
I filed this bug with upstream almost a year ago but there has been no action. Based on the number of commits recently (almost none since 2014) I suspect that the project is dead.

Comment 2 Paul DeStefano 2016-09-21 07:16:37 UTC
Ah, I see.  Well, that's disappointing.  Is there another way to get twitter feed via IRSSI?

If not, I'll take a gander at the script and see if I can fix it.

I don't know of any other projects that do this. And I don't use irssi anymore, but I'd be happy to take your patch which we could apply to just the Fedora package if upstream doesn't want it.

Comment 4 Paul DeStefano 2016-09-26 05:50:32 UTC
What do you use instead of irssi now?

Comment 5 Paul DeStefano 2016-10-19 05:12:02 UTC
I think the patch was applied upstream.  Would you pull?

(Still curious what you use instead of irssi, now.)
