Subject: v02i007: calentool - patch level 6, Part 1/1 Newsgroups: comp.sources.sun Approved: mcgrew@aramis.rutgers.edu Submitted-by: Bill Randle <billr@saab.cna.tek.com> Posting-number: Volume 2, Issue 7 Archive-name: calentool/patch6 [This is a quick turn patch to fix the two bugs that have been discovered in calentool 2.1p5. It also includes a patch for the "world" dates file and a new copy of the "space" dates file (the diff would be > the original). Use "patch -p <patches06" to apply the patch file. The versions on saab, titan and uunet will be updated when I get a chance. I'll also put a copy of this file there. -br] [ Note: Do patchlevel 5 (4 parts) before patchlevel 6. I encountered some slight trouble with patchlevel 6, but decidedly minor. -CWM] #! /bin/sh # This is a shell archive.
