Hi Axel, We often ask our users to test the latest version of sensors-detect. They typically get it from SVN through the trac interface: http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/prog/detect/sensors-detect?format=txt Unfortunately, trac doesn't honor keyword substitutions, so when the user reports the output, we get: # sensors-detect revision $Revision$ Not very useful. The bug (or at least missing feature) has already been reported upstream 5 years ago, and I've added a comment there yesterday: http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/717#comment:10 I don't expect this ticket to get fixed soon. An alternative is to use the SVN web interface: http://www.lm-sensors.org/svn/lm-sensors/trunk/prog/detect/sensors-detect Unfortunately there is no keyword substitution there either. Does anyone know if there is a way to enable it? If not, it would be nice to have a workaround. I have one, which is a simple CGI script which fetches the file using the svn command line client and prints its contents: #!/bin/sh echo "Content-type: text/plain" echo svn cat http://www.lm-sensors.org/svn/lm-sensors/trunk/prog/detect/sensors-detect I've tested it locally and it works fine for me. I could run it on my home server, however I think it is better for the users if they get the script from lm-sensors.org. They really have no reason to trust my personal server (which may also disappear someday.) Axel, is there a chance we could run this CGI script on lm-sensors.org and point users to it when we want them to test the latest version of sensors-detect? Thanks, -- Jean Delvare
