Description Vladislav Grigoryev 2025-03-20 06:10:31 UTC

nano syntax highlighting no longer works by default in F42.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
A simple test:
```
nano /etc/nanorc
```
Actual Results:  
Syntax highlighting is disabled by default.

Expected Results:  
Syntax highlighting should be enabled by default.

The include path in the sample nanorc no longer has quotes:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/nano.git/tree/doc/sample.nanorc.in#n252

The sed patch fails and should be fixed here:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nano/blob/rawhide/f/nano.spec#_84

Comment 1 Kamil Dudka 2025-03-20 07:07:55 UTC

This is caused by the following upstream change: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/nano.git/commit/?id=ebddb49041c718e569c80fba282343650307c202

The quotes need to be removed in the corresponding regular expression: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nano/blob/31a86c372c17750c4a05cbef8bde31c8ceae0033/f/nano.spec#_84
