Why not just fix it since this is a community effort?
It takes longer
to complain about it and reject it than it does to perform the actual
work. (Sans the merge problem on Master).
I second that. I mean I do understand that nobody wants to do the boring work which
could be offloaded to others, and rightfully so. But that's also discouraging - and
that's why those patches are stalled since spring: I use patched version locally and
keep working on my research. Because it's research project, not some product
there's
no maintenance burden for me in this setup, while with pushing stuff upstream - there
is. Hence the efforts to mainline things are not as ideal as they could be.
Of course I would try to fix the patches anyway, so that they will please upstream,
but not today - Friday evening, and so on :)
I hope I do not sound complaining - just would like to clarify the difference.
