-
- Patches for a variety of problems in R5 are available via anonymous
- ftp on export.lcs.mit.edu and via the xstuff mail archive server on
- expo.lcs.mit.edu.
-
- Fixes are available via anonymous ftp to export.lcs.mit.edu (18.24.0.12),
- in the directory /pub/R5/fixes/. The file for this fix is "fix-20".
- Instructions for applying the fix are included in the file. Fixes usually
- propagate to other distribution sites as well, so it may pay to check at a
- nearer site first.
-
- For those without ftp access, individual fixes can be obtained by mail by
- sending a message to xstuff@expo.lcs.mit.edu (18.24.0.11). In the usual
- case, the message should have a subject line and no body, or a single-line
- body and no subject. For example, make the line:
- send fixes 20
- to get this fix. To get a summary of fixes, make the line:
- index fixes
- If you need help, make the line:
- help
- Some mailers produce mail headers that are unusable for extracting return
- addresses. If you use such a mailer, you won't get any response. If you
- happen to know an explicit path, you can include a line like
- path foo%bar.bitnet@mitvma.mit.edu
- or
- path zot!gzork!me@uunet.uu.net
- in the body of your message, and the daemon will use it.
