However, since this is not the actual message ID by the original "newchange" mail, it still doesn't associate to the same "Patch" in Patchwork. Instead it creates a new patch. Regards,
Your patch has been applied to the master branch.
I have not tested it further, given that it has plenty of ACKs (and
only affects cmake build system).
Two observations, though - the cmake changes look incomplete, there
is still many "#undef HAVE_something" left. Shouldn't they all be
completed to "#cmakedefine" for this to make sense?
Second, while not really relevant on Linux or *BSD, erroring-out
in daemon() on chdir("/") fail is not what either manpage documents -
and I do not think chdir("/") (as root) can ever fail. So changing the
code flow just to silence the compiler feels a bit meh - doing a (void)
there would have silenced it just fine. But as I said it's not
truly relevant.
What OS were you building anyway that you hit an error in compat-daemon.c
(aka "are we missing a cmake test for daemon()")?
