[htdig-dev] not all 3.1.6 bug fix patches in 3.2 yet

[Gilles D. <gr...@sc...>]

Hi, folks!  Sorry to throw another curve ball your way, but while
checking the 3.2 Display.cc code against my patched 3.1.6 code, I came
to the realisation that not all bug fixes for the 3.1.6 code, available
at ftp://ftp.ccsf.org/htdig-patches/3.1.6/, and which would still be
relevant/applicable to the 3.2 code, have actually been applied there.

Here's my summary of the patches that probably ought to go in 3.2:

timet_enddate.2		(bug #578570, fixes enddate handling bugs)
time_t.1		(fixes possible time_t overflow in Server.cc)
titleSpace.0		(decodes %20 space in file names in title field)
masking_noindex.0	(makes HTML.cc insert space after noindex stripping)
Date-viewing.0		(fixes typo in HTML.cc)
SolarisLogging.1	(fixes logging bug when words empty on Solaris)
documentation.1		(in part - fixes cf_types.html & htmerge.html)
documentation.2		(in part - fixes htdig.html, meta.html & requires.html)

With the exception of the first, and likely the documentation ones,
they should have a bug report opened (or re-opened if one was prematurely
closed as for #578570), and dealt with appropriately.

I'll handle timet_enddate.2, Date-viewing.0, SolarisLogging.1 and the two
documentation patches.  For the others, I thought I'd put them up here
for grabs by anyone who feels motivated to tackle them -- and also up for
discussion if any of you think some of these are of questionable value.
Please speak up in either case.
