Imperative mood: Additionally, drop the const from variables to which the prefix_path() result is assigned so they can be free()'d without having to cast-away constness. > Signed-off-by: Stefan Beller <sbeller@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- > > Notes: > Thanks for all the suggestions! > They are incorporated into this version of the patch. Thanks, this version looks much better.
