[fetchmail-devel] Trouble parsing a particular fetchmailrc file: bison parser update?

[<JUA...@te...>]

I am having trouble parsing a particular fetchmailrc file.
Fetchmail does not output any error but the particular account is not 
parsed correctly.
It seems like the parser has a bug by parsing such file.

I was looking at regenerating the parser with the latest bison version
but it seems bison has problems.

Could you try to generate the bison parser with the latest bison 
version
(2.3) and include it in the next fetchmail release?

Could you send us the fetchmailrc file and tell us specifically how it is 
being parsed incorrectly?

Please show your .fetchmailrc and the output of fetchmail --configdump
and/or fetchmail -V

Proof?

So? The parser was built with GNU Bison 1.875.

Not unless a bug in GNU Bison 1.875 is proven.
