Description Denis Pronin 2018-10-03 22:03:23 UTC

Hi,
I found out that the application incorrectly linking 'chkslang' in src/Makefile not appending $(LDFLAGS)
How could we influence on the community whom responsible for developing the package?
We need to inject this LDFLAGS in src/Makefile exactly in the line:

$(OBJDIR)/chkslang: $(OBJDIR)/chkslang.o
	$(CC) $(OBJDIR)/chkslang.o -o $(OBJDIR)/chkslang

, so that it would appear like

$(OBJDIR)/chkslang: $(OBJDIR)/chkslang.o
	$(CC) $(OBJDIR)/chkslang.o -o $(OBJDIR)/chkslang $(LDFLAGS)

Thank you

I sent an email to the maintainer of 'most' application, waiting for a response

Comment 2 Denis Pronin 2018-10-09 15:02:17 UTC

Finally, the issue was fixed by the maintainer John E. Davis. 'Most' is being prepared to release. Here is the last cured 'snapshot' of 'most' application http://www.jedsoft.org/snapshots/

The maintainer claimed he will release a new 'most' at the end of the month, October 2018. We will have been waiting for him to release a new 'most' by the end of October, then

Thank you

Is 5.1.0 fine (it's in tree)?
