I suppose "Greebo" is right off the list? To go along with the Ogg Vrobis, and other Terry Pratchett references? To quote a Terry Pratchett story, the possible staes of a cat in a box are actually "alive, dead, or bloody furious", which is what the developers are going to be when they encounter extraneous punction in basic system configuration files. They files are being parsed by /bin/sh in ./configure scripts and Makefiles, not a complex data format. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
