Making a new release takes me about an hour (compile under Windows, Linux, Mac OSX), so I don't do it for each little change. If you want to follow the development closely, I recommend that you learn to compile elog from the GIT repository. It's pretty easy: a git pull, followed by a make and make install.
If you want to see which changes are already in the version you are running, look at the 7 digit GIT hash at the bottom of each elog page and compare it with the bitbucket repository:

Hi,
I compiled the 3.1.0-2 source rpm from the download area. Unless there is a minor release, I think the problem is still there. Thank you.

Hi Stefan,
The email sent from here had he expected (correct) message "A new ELOG entry..."
Thanks, David.

Hi Stefan,
I see that you've updated the elog running this forum today, 5 versions after you reported fixing the "A new elog entry has been entered" and "An old elog entry has been updated" issue. But the emails coming out are still all of the "An old elog entry...", rather than "A new..."

I missed or don't remember that post. My vote is replace "Back" with "Delete" - or "Abort"

Hi Stefan,
I had started to write a completely different bug report, but then realised I had not checked a detail. I had written about one sentence. So I decided to abort the message, and hit the "back" button. Only I found that this had created a new entry in the elog listings. I immediately went in and deleted it, but I had expected the "Back" button to have aborted the entry (as it does in 2.9.x) not to submit the entry!
It doesn't seem to have created an email, though. And for the sake of all your users, I'd not want to experiment here on the matter too much!

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.0-2 | ELOG Forum: drafts cannot be deleted |
> Another strange thing: the draft got submitted when I hit the "Back" button after reopening it.
Well, this is a problem indeed. When edit entries now, drafts gets saved regularly, overwriting your original entry. This is a limitation of the elog database, which cannot do full versioning. So "Back" is actually the same as "Commit without email notification". Or better "Commit some ten seconds ago". Now I
don't know what the best solution is. I'm tempted to just remove the "Back" button and replace it with a "Delete" button. So people can either submit an entry or delete it completely. Any thoughts? |
