Hello (from a patch by René, send to cl-debian to provoke a discussion) On Friday 13 January 2006 11:02, you wrote:

Why? This would clisp 2.37 work enough to package, but everybody that would run code having :if-exists :append would lose data. I don't think release a clisp package with those properties would be wise, not?

Discussion? Here? ;-)

I fully agree with you on that. I just had the xlibs-dev transition in Mind when sending you this patch. But after all, the broken appending is too bad. It is claimed to be fixed in CVS btw, the patch is small and could be easily backported (at least it applies), I just haven't found any time testing it yet. After all, waiting for the next release is probably easier. ;-) René -- to be expected back online on Mondey earliest
