teamwork, or: why I love the Debian Perl Group:
elbrus has introduced a (very untypical) package into the Debian Perl Group in 2022.
after changes of the default compiler options
(-Werror=implicit-function-declaration)
in debian, it didn't
build any more & received an RC bug.
because I sometimes like challenges, I had a look at it & cobbled together a patch. as I hardly speak any C, I sent my notes to the bug report & (implictly) asked for help. – & went out to meet a friend.
when I came home, I found an email from ntyni, sent less than 2 hours after my mail, where he friendly pointed out the issues with my patch – & sent a corrected version.
all I needed to do was to adjust the patch & upload the package. one
more bug fixed, one less task for us, & elbrus can concentrate on more
important tasks :)
thanks again, niko!
