Here's another 2 calendar errors, presumably cpp, that manifest in 12.2-STABLE,
that 9.2-RELEASE gets right.
Man calendar:
Empty lines and lines protected by the C commenting syntax
(/* ... */) are ignored.
--- Input ~/.calendar/calendar
friday fish
/*
* Oct 21 AAA
*/
friday and chips
---12.2-STABLE output
Oct 30* and chips
Oct 30 AAA
Oct 30* fish
Oct 31 AAA
---9.2-RELEASE output
Oct 30* and chips
Oct 30* fish
---
Error 1: Why does it emit AAA ?
Error 2: Why twice ?
Puzzle: Doesnt happen if you change Oct above to Aug inside the comment.
(PS both do a nasty stack unstack, which may look familiar to us
programmers, but looks silly to normal peopler, inverting fish & chips)
Cheers,
