The issue is that upstream does not have a bug tracker, and this makes difficult to know which versions are affected, and which bugs need to be tested to check whether they are still there in Debian. Note that though this bug probably occurs very rarely, it can introduce obscure incorrect behavior in scripts. > I'm asking, because our list of open bugs at > https://bugs.debian.org/zsh is already quite long, as you might be > aware of, and AFAICS ~32 of those bug reports got submitted by you. > > The current maintainers of pkg-zsh are quite overloaded already, so > any assistance in improving the actual situation would be very > welcome. Given your track record, maybe you wanna join us? :) I check old bugs from time to time (in particular when there are new versions of packages, but which hasn't happened for a long time concerning zsh). -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Pascaline project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
