From: Kevin Day To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: misc/19771: elm port in 4.0-RELEASE is broken Date: Sun, 13 Aug 2000 18:24:39 -0500 (CDT) This PR can be closed. The originator was using elm-2.4ME+68, which was on the 4.0 CD set. From a later elm-2.4ME ChangeLog, I found: - "Also, under Solaris 2.6/7, HP-UX 10.20 and FreeBSD 3.1, if the mailbox does not exist (i.e. /var/mail/user), elm will dump core. If the file exists but is zero length, there is no problem. This problem does not occur on linux (Redhat 6.0 in my tests)." Reported by: Zube - Also happened on IRIX Orginator was advised to upgrade to a newer ELM. -- Kevin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
