Ouch. I wonder why that happened the way it did. Holding back sth. like that in the final run-up to a release seems weird.

This is the patch that introduced the problem: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/...mit/032b1d79b7
This is really silly mistake, lessons here are: - Don't refactor code when doing a s/oldFunction/newFunction/; it's tempting, but also likely to introduce silly bugs like this. - Code reviews are important! Last edited by Carpetsmoker; 29th October 2018 at 01:57 AM.
