Join the club :-) I understand it is volunteer and didn't mean to piss in your wheaties.

I don't have time to go tracking through CVS to figure out a patch
for the problem, that was not even mentioned in the initial bug report.

I agree that the bug report was vague and if it had been sent to me, I would have also responded for more information as you did. Since I held more information I thought I would help you out. Obviously that was a mistake and will refrain from trying to build a communication path between the Debian package maintainer and the project lead. Maybe, if it is so hard to maintain, you guys should just remove BASE from the repository. I know it would make my life easier.

I will go back to ignoring the existence of a Debian package and you can go back to ignoring the fact that there is an entire team of developers that would be willing to help you out.

It would also appear that the CVS repository is useless as far as
tagging as it appears there was no 1.4.4 release tag made so I couldn't
even generate a diff from CVS between the released tarball version and
the current CVS HEAD that supposedly fixes the problem.

I didn't realize I had forgotten to tag the release. While that does make things more difficult I don't think it renders the repository useless.

Like I said, I was just trying to help you out but obviously that irritated you some how.

Have a good day,
Kevin
