Subject: CML2 1.8.6 is available -- bug list is cleared

The latest version is always available at http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/cml2/

Release 1.8.6: Wed Nov 14 16:58:03 EST 2001
* Fixed three logic bugs reported by Frederic Gobry, David Kamholz,
and Danni Junglas. These mainly affected rollback when a variable
is unset; sometimes this wasn't being done properly.

This release resolves all known logic bugs and rulebase problems. The
only things left on the to-do list are convenience features and some minor
improvements in the test/coverage tools. This code is now officially ready for
the 2.5 fork.

Special thanks go to David Kamholz and David Relson, both of whom have turned
in particularly high-quality bug reports recently. With collaborators like
these, debugging is almost a pleasure!

A few configuration bugs:

- CONFIG_USB_UHCI and CONFIG_USB_UHCI_ALT should be able to be selected
as modules at the same time. Currently they are not.
- USB Serial menu should be below "USS720 parport driver"
- If USB_SERIAL = 'M' then USB_SERIAL_DEBUG should be not be shown.
- USB_SERIAL_IR does not show up in the menu, is this due to there not
being a help entry for it?
- HOTPLUG_PCI_COMPAQ should be tristate.

thanks,

Done for 1.8.7.

That's right. Symbols with no help are visible only when EXPERT is on.
