Package: xchat Version: 2.8.2-1 Severity: normal If you quit XChat while your disk is full then ~/.xchat2/ignore.conf is truncated to an empty file, losing your carefully crafted ignore list.
I think this is because ignore_save() opens ignore.conf with O_TRUNC | O_WRONLY | O_CREAT - there would be no risk of losing your old ignore.conf file in this case if it instead opened and tried to write to ignore.conf.tmp and if successful used rename(2) to move that file to ignore.conf regards, mark -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.23-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_GB.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xchat depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.20.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.7-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.4.10-1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.1.2-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.74-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libfontconfig1 2.5.0-2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.5-1+b1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libglib2.0-0 2.14.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.1-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.18.4-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libperl5.8 5.8.8-12 Shared Perl library ii libpng12-0 1.2.15~beta5-3 PNG library - runtime ii libsexy2 0.1.11-2 collection of additional GTK+ widg ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8g-3 SSL shared libraries ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.9-1 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxi6 2:1.1.3-1 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.2-1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxml2 2.6.30.dfsg-3.1 GNOME XML library ii libxrandr2 2:1.2.2-1 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.4-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii python2.4 2.4.4-7 An interactive high-level object-o ii tcl8.4 8.4.17-1 Tcl (the Tool Command Language) v8 ii xchat-common 2.8.2-1 Common files for X-Chat ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-8 compression library - runtime xchat recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
