Description David Binderman 2005-01-20 11:17:23 UTC
Description of problem:

I just had a look at the source code for package howl-0.9.8-2
from the Redhat Fedora development tree.

I found this

[root@localhost SPECS]# find ../BUILD/howl-0.9.8/ -name \*.c -print |
xargs grep "assert.*(.* = "
../BUILD/howl-0.9.8/src/lib/howl/MacOSX/macosx_socket.c:       
sw_assert(self->m_super.m_registered = SW_TRUE);
[root@localhost SPECS]#

IMHO, dubious code. Suggest remove assignment from the assert statement.

This code isn't even built on fedora. report it upstream instead.
