Hi, I'm forwarding this message here after an attempt to contact the author bounced back to me after two months (!). Is anyone willing to maintain cl-clx-sbcl? This is a patch to get it running on a modern SBCL. [ François-René ÐVB Rideau | Reflection&Cybernethics | http://fare.tunes.org ] Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity.

Byrnes ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Faré <fahree@gmail.com> Date: 11-Sep-2005 12:22 Subject: cl-clx-sbcl To: Milan Zamazal <pdm@debian.org> cl-clx-sbcl is not up-to-date with the latest sbcl anymore. Here is a patch that solves two issues: * (sb-thread:current-thread-id) is obsoleted by sb-thread:*current-thread* * base-char is 7-bit when sb-unicode is enabled. Note that a lot of code commented with #+(or) seems to be wrong, but I suppose it's on purpose. Don't forget to add a dependency conflict with too old sbcl's.

Is your fix related to the fix applied in debian bug 331371? If not, perhaps sending your fix via the bug tracking system is better than sending email directly to the maintainer. Kevin

I imagine it's maintainer Milan Zamazal is. At least, he applied Peter's patch 10/3/05. Kevin

It's related in that the patch I sent at the time did include the fix for what would later be known as bug 331371. But it *also* included a fix for clx assuming that base-char is 8-bit-clean, whereas it isn't.
If not, perhaps sending your fix via the bug tracking system is better than sending email directly to the maintainer. Will do, in my copious free time.

Maybe he did. But the mail I sent him two months ago at his @debian.org address just bounced back to me :-( [ François-René ÐVB Rideau | Reflection&Cybernethics | http://fare.tunes.org ] You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers.

Using the command reportbug cl-clx-sbcl with the body of your previous email may be the most time efficient way to now report the bug via the bug tracking system
Maybe he did. But the mail I sent him two months ago at his @debian.org address just bounced back to me :-(
Perhaps he had a temporary mail problem or some filter on his mail causing the bound. The patch in applied last month should have come through his Debian email address since that is what the bug tracking system uses. -- Kevin Rosenberg kevin@rosenberg.net
I am the proud reporter of bug 338242 Yeehaa!
Using the command reportbug cl-clx-sbcl Doesn't work: my ISP blocks outgoing mail (funky second hand setting). So I copy-pasted its tmp file into gmail.
Thanks for the support! [ François-René ÐVB Rideau | Reflection&Cybernethics | http://fare.tunes.org ] Calling a Communist a liar is pretty frustrating. How do you insult a pig by calling it a pig?
