- Hi,
-
- This patch solves the build problems for GNU/Hurd due to PATH_MAX
- issues. The solution is to make dynamic string allocations instead of
- using fixed length buffers. The patch involves one file, and is
- trivial. Parts of the code have been reviewed by GNU/Hurd developers
- and Debian GNU/Hurd developers and maintainers.
-
- FIXME:
- Is it really useful to check if BUFSIZ is defined?
-
- TODO:
- Should the "whole package" be tested with valgrind on GNU/Linux?!
- If yes, is there a standard procedure to do it?!
-
- Thanks!
- Special thanks to Jérémie and Richard for their comments!
-
- (Not submitted yet, comments are welcome.)
-
-Once it's been approved, you can proceed to the submission.
