I see. Now I understand better the daily snapshots are for. > So if you were worried about the people that might try the last > libusbx release on stable OpenBSD releases, I hope that my point > of view, as one of the USB developers in OpenBSD, helped you to > understand that there's almost certainly no such risk ;) Okay. I must be one of the very few people who were trying to test libusbx git under a released OpenBSD version. So I will stop doing it and stick to the snapshots. I think I will not be able to follow OpenBSD current myself. Rather I will probably use the my installed snapshot until it breaks and then try a new snapshot. On the other hand, will you be able to test future libusbx release candidates? That may be easier for us. > But if you want to be really paranoid, we can either add a note > in the ChangLog or a configure check for the new ioctls. Even though I agree that a note in the changelog is good enough, still I am wondering how difficult it is to add a configure check. -- Xiaofan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing Performance Central, a new site from SourceForge and AppDynamics.
