Bug 294138 – genkernel 3.4.10.904: possible typo when linking to newroot/: current_parent/curent_parrent

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Hosted Projects

[Description amitds 2009-11-23 08:06:18 UTC]

<shell>
[10:03:41] amit0 ~ # qfile -v /usr/share/genkernel/defaults/linuxrc
sys-kernel/genkernel-3.4.10.904 (/usr/share/genkernel/defaults/linuxrc)
[10:03:44] amit0 ~ # grep -ecurrent_parent -ecurent_parrent /usr/share/genkernel/defaults/linuxrc
                                if [ "${curent_parrent}" != '' ]; then
                                        var=`echo "${directory}" | grep "^${curent_parrent}"`
                                        current_parent="${directory}"

</shell>
Might there be a misspelling in "curent_parrent" (should be "current_parent")?

Reproducible: Always

Yes, that's a typo. However, is it actually causing a problem?

[Comment 2 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) 2009-11-23 13:02:58 UTC]

This is fixed in git. However, with the way the code is used right now, it would have never caused an issue.

None that I encountered.
Note sure that "fixing" it shall not introduce issues, though.

Due to the date of the last comment on this bug I assume that feature to be included in 3.4.10.907 or an earlier release of genkernel.

Closing, please re-open as needed.
