Hi, everyone,
I'm slightly embarrassed to announce the release of Remind 05.02.01.
This release fixes an extremely long-standing bug that only came
to light because of a combination of two things:
1) Luck: It seemed to manifest itself with more likelihood on big-endian
machines than little-endian machines. (Though honestly, I can't
understand how it hadn't segfaulted at some point.), AND
2) New tests introduced in 05.02.00 that triggered the bug.
Thanks to Debian for finding this bug with its great multi-architecture
testing infrastructure, and to Jochen Sprickerhof for alerting me to the
test failures.
Remind 05.02.01 is available at https://dianne.skoll.ca/projects/remind/
