A PR was submitted recently regarding a problem with a port that I maintain. I deteremined what the problem was and created a patch for the Makefile and a replacement for one of the patch files in FILESDIR. I then started send-pr, changed the TO; address to bug-followups and added a subject line referring to the existing PR. A new PR was opened anyway. Obviously I don't know how to do this correctly. What is the correct procedure when you want to respond to an existing PR by submitting a patch for the problem? -- Paul Schmehl (pauls@utdallas.edu) Senior Information Security Analyst The University of Texas at Dallas http://www.utdallas.edu/ir/security/
