Description David Tonhofer 2011-01-13 15:39:38 UTC

Description of problem
----------------------

- Create file /etc/minirc.bhnS0 (say)
- This file is supposed to be created automatically, but in this case, we
  do it ourselves
- Leave an empty line at the end of the file (the last character of the file 
  is 0x0a)
- Start "minicom bhnS0"
- minicom complains: 
  "** Line 7 of the global config file is unparsable."

Minicom should ignore empty lines, especially at the end of the config file and not confuse users with cryptic error messages.

If the last line is a comment line (starts with #), no error message is issued.

Version-Release number of selected component:
---------------------------------------------

minicom-2.4-2.fc14.1.i686

How reproducible
----------------

Always
