Description Martin Smith 2006-11-03 15:59:39 UTC
Hello,

app-pda/synce-rra-0.9.1 appears to be dropping two annoying debug output files directly into my home directory, pattern-right.bin and pattern-wrong.bin.

When I unpack the ebuild, I find in /var/tmp/portage/synce-rra-0.9.1/work/synce-rra-0.9.1/lib/recurrence_pattern.c (lines 940 - 967):

 /** DEBUG --> */
    ...

        file = fopen("pattern-right.bin", "w");
        fwrite(buffer, size, 1, file);
        fclose(file);
        file = fopen("pattern-wrong.bin", "w");
        fwrite(new_buffer, new_size, 1, file);
        fclose(file);
   ... 

  /** <-- DEBUG */

While this is a trivial problem, it's definitely annoying. I'd submit a patch, but really it looks like it was probably intended to be commented out anyway, just snuck in by accident.

Thank you for all the working getting my stuff to sync!

I've added a patch for this for synce-rra-0.9.1-r1, can you confirm this fixes the issue?

Hi there,

Thank you! I can confirm -- there are no more files dropped in my home directory :).

Cheers, closing the bug.
