678 turned out to be this part of the (new code) ffu.h patch: + * the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or = +(at + * your option) any later version. I'm just guessing: This looks like a "=" line extension somehow landed in the code and was picked up by the patch. pwclient appears to know how to deal with "=" at the end of the line otherwise. cheers grant -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
