Re: [PATCH] Initialize struct stat st_[acm]tim.tv_nsec when present

[Egmont Koblinger <egmont gmail com>]

Hi guys,

It is a regression (on my Fedora at least), as timestamps were preserved
with the earlier mc versions.

As far as I understand the current story, this is probably due to some other change since mc didn't change its relevant code recently.

Also, generally it's not feasible to make a release each time a regression is fixed. Each release fixes twenty bugs and introduces two new, that's the way it goes :-D

That being said, this timestamp issue plus the pending mcview growing issues (which are also quite notable usability problems) are I believe a good reason to schedule a .20 release for the not-so-distant future (let's say, within a month or so).

cheers,

egmont
