Well, the reason why the patch is there is bug#129962. If you have any ideas on how to properly fix the problem, please let me know, but currently i have no clue. But the original code there definitely looks wrong to me. Gentoo did it right. Look at their 09_all_logfillup.patch. You might also be interested in 11_all_lib_segv.patch. In any case your aproach is not good - it leaves gpm in a invalid state. Since the mc is no longer compiled with gpm support, some quieting patch is in gpm already and the behaviour with the patch is strange anyway -- it allows only root to use mouse in screen --, I would not mind removing the patch. I'll ask Peter for his opinion. Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now, we will automatically close it. If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.) Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. The process we're following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again. This bug has been in NEEDINFO for more than 30 days since feedback was first requested. As a result we are closing it. If you can reproduce this bug in the future against a maintained Fedora version please feel free to reopen it against that version. The process we're following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp |
