Marcov, you are a gentleman and a scholar ! I thank you for the positive action.
I also looked at the declartory and orignal cases, and most seem to have already been fixed in trunk.
Yeah, some were fixed a few months ago because they showed up in my binary.
The one remaining declartory is in an MPL license text from an external package. I'm not sure if we are legally allowed to fix that (and thus mutate the license)
Oh, thats an interesting one.
W superfluous-file-pattern fpcsrc/compiler/compinnr.inc [debian/copyright:125]
Since I didn't know what that file was about.
I suspect that is in the Debian license file they create during packaging. Its been fixed at their end anyway.
From whats been going on here, I have to assume the National Code Page v UTF8 issue is a "will not fix" but I suppose its reasonable for us to say that the ISO files are pretty stable, unlikely to be edited or have more added ?
Note that the IDE dir change is first quarter 2015 or so....
I believe that they are working with FPC3.2.2 so that would seem strange indeed.
All very long line warnings: why does Debian detect lines in binary files?
I have no idea. That's a new list that only appeared a few days ago, after this thread started. IHMO it makes no sense.
I spelling-error-in-binary ACount Account..... It shouldn't be scanning binary files for spelling,
Yes, I had a smile about that one too. Fact is they do scan binary files and most of the hits they get are valid. But its not fool proof
Peter Green aka plugwash,.... Raspbian
I stand corrected.
I think I know the limits now of what its worthwhile worrying the FPC devs about. If more fixable ones are found, how would you prefer them reported ? Just a bug report or a pull request ?
Thanks again !
Davo
