Hi all
I have created a patch according to issue #12208 and also added and commited
it to:
svn+ssh://svn.linuxfromscratch.org/patches/trunk/curl/curl-7.65.1-fix-dns-segfaults-1.patch
I'm not quite sure how to proceed now. It is not (yet) at
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/patches/blfs/svn/
so modifying the curl page to add the patch there seems not (yet) a good
idea.
Does anyone want to take over from here or point my to a doc how to go on
myself?
Bye
Tim
Hi Tim:
1. Upload the patch to lfs-patches (done).
2. Change the book and commit it.
3. Wait for the book to be rendered on higgs - at that point I think
the symlinks from the svn book get made.
So, do the edit. The only problems are when we typo the name (memo
to self: patch name in both the Additional Download and the command
to apply it need to match what was uploaded).
And whenever someone says "ooh, you added a patch but the link
doesn't work", recheck the name and then tell them to look at
lfs-patches (or else correct the name).
Summary: when you add a new patch, the link from your local copy
will never work until some time (usually hours) after you committed
the edit.

Another thing to remember about patches is our header style. The patch
that we have from Tim doesn't have this:
Submitted By:
Date:
Initial Package Version:
Upstream Status:
Origin:
URL:
Description:
I'm in the process of revamping a couple parts of the patch right now,
mostly having to do with the lib/multi.c portion (it seems to be
completely recreating the file, which shouldn't happen - that's not
Tim's fault though, I think it's something with the patchset that was in
the ticket). I'm going to give him credit as the creator of the patch in
the header, and then add an "Updates" section for the work I'm doing.
Thanks for creating the patch, Tim! :-)
P.S. - -1 of the patch is here:
http://linuxfromscratch.org/patches/downloads/curl/curl-7.65.1-fix-dns-segfaults-1.patch
- that gets updated as soon as you commit. It's the SVN folder that
doesn't get updated until the next book render :-)
