Yes, it presumes too much, that's what I say in the paragraphs above. To me there seems to be no other way to fix this and maintain the behaviour that Daniel Burrows wanted without changing a significant amount of code, that I don't want to do now to not get in the way of the wip-cmdline. But as I also said, I think that the way in which Daniel Burrows solved this at the time is the wrong way and that should have accepted the "(verbose > 0)" from Ubuntu. I don't understand why he didn't, but I think that that's what we should do. > In any case, resolved in wip-cmdline. I still would like to solve this for the next release 0.6.8.5, better with the "(verbose >= 0)" than with the patch above. This is an unintrusive change that should not get in the way of wip-cmdline.
