Bugzilla Bug 184884

ed-0.6 was released on 2007-06-29.

done, thanks for the info

ed-0.7 was released on 2007-07-18.

what's the status on this?

(1) you file new bug reports, you dont open old ones

(2) stop going to every open bug you see and asking for status reports.  if you
want status reports, get a job as middle management where you can pester people
underneath you who have no choice but to listen.

There's a benefit from reopening this one which is that the bug is already
assigned correctly and a trivial version bump is not the kind of thing that
needs to be locked away and archived. On the other hand there's a good chance
you've been using this bug tracker ten times longer than I have, so even if I
don't immediately see your point I might try not to bug you more than
necessary.

I did this to four bugs at once. While that might be two bugs too many, two's
still not twenty or anything. I use Gentoo/Alt - that means I have an interest
in having the ebuild in the main tree so it can be adopted, but I cannot test
any of the `unprefixed` ebuilds on my machine - a mac.

Secondly I'm not expecting anyone, especially in the case of this bug - *ED* -
to invest a lot of time or to invest any time at all into something only I
would benefit from - because that's not the case (although ed might be a bad
example for something everybody benefits from).

What I did is write a short comment. There was no swearing, no pushing, no
nothing. And if whoever gets that comment via mail has a problem with getting
that kind of *short* note - for the first time on this bug - considering it
took me longer to write than him to read, that's just ridiculous.
