Ref: http://www.loonie.net/~eschenk/diald.html. It says "grab the file
diald-patch-0.16.5.gz, which is the most recent patch. " Despite the text
which says it modifies diald.c all the files and the README in it are about
patching ppp versions 2.1.23, 2.2.0e and 2.2.0f.
I'm still chasing the (apparently recent) problem of not compiling under RH
5.2. Dan Chapman (ref:
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-diald%40vger.rutgers.edu/msg01887.html)
said this patch was the answer. As did some one from micros50
(http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-diald%40vger.rutgers.edu/msg01910.html).
Gary Mackay
(http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-diald%40vger.rutgers.edu/msg01888.html)
said he found one that worked for kernel 2.2.4, but RH 5.2 installed with
2.0.36. That ref to diald.unix.ch gets versions like diald-0.98.3 but
www.loonie.net is at version 0.16.5. what gives?
ok comparing dates it looks like schenk moved from www.loonie.net where he
was last Jan 98 with ver 0.16 to diald.unix.ch by Mar 99 with ver 0.98.
There is even recent (mar99) traffic from Duncan Haldane
(http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-diald%40vger.rutgers.edu/msg01894.html)
about v0.16! Duncan notes v0.98 isn't "fully stable" as his reason for
reposting v0.16.
The problem existed already (19Mar99) under the subject thread "compile
problem" from John Abbot
(http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-diald%40vger.rutgers.edu/msg01821.html)
where Kent Oyer told John to get the patches
(http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-diald%40vger.rutgers.edu/msg01831.html).
Before that (16Mar99), Denis Voitenko
(http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-diald%40vger.rutgers.edu/msg01790.html)
had the same problem.
Alright enough history. The archive
(http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-diald%40vger.rutgers.edu/) seems to
present the threaded archive most recent first so I'm not going back
farther in time.
If you are still reading, is the right thing to do to use 0.98.3 on RedHat
5.2 kernel 2.0.36? I spent about 3 hours this afternoon trying to sort this
out.
