The comment for the mentioned patch reversion was: the map-to-lowercase scheme for msdos is not going to work, because other filesystems can contain mixed case files (ie. sgi). discussed with krw and halex
which makes not much sense for me, because the fix was a conditional treatment for MSDOS filesystem. (which also is not very transparent - i was unable to find the referenced discussion with krw and alex, but the issue Why OpenBSD does not yet (or anymore) have a bug tracker system is for another discussion) For the reference, quoted URLs fixed would be: https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/distrib/miniroot/install.sub#rev1.750 https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/distrib/miniroot/install.sub#rev1.752 On 2017-05-10 Wed 13:27, Theo Buehler wrote: > A similar diff was briefly committed in 1.750 for the reason you mention: > https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/distrib/miniroot/install.sub#rev750 > It was backed out again in > https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/distrib/miniroot/install.sub#rev752 > > ...
