The problem is for scripts, like decode-dimms (and sensors-detect, for the lm-sensors part.) We can't "#include <version.h>" from these, and my experience is that including a "manual" version string in such scripts doesn't work because we tend to forget to update it (can probably be addressed with some discipline.) Also including the date turned out to be very convenient to figure out quickly if a user report was from a recent enough version of the script (particularly useful for sensors-detect, of which the latest snapshot was available for direct download and in-place execution.) -- Jean Delvare SUSE L3 Support -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
