       SIGH SIGH SIGH

People, exactly what can I do to make you actually *read* THE BIG
LETTERS in the QAT and QATty mails?


Is there a better wording of those mails?

Should I send HTML mails and use bold and font size =3D 24?

Put pictures of naked women in them each pointing to a piece of
information?


I think you have all the information you need in each of those emails;
you can sort them via the custom headers;
you even have a direct link to the archived WRKDIR;
etc.


I've spent about 2 hours per day, each day, in the last 14 months
running QAT and QATty to provide on-commit testing and get the period
of time a port is broken to a minumun; and doing testing for non-default
configurations that we claim we support and that were never tested
on Pointy.

This is so very frustrating.

Paul, I'm not picking on you, it's just that it's the 4th mail I get in
the last days showing the same thing.
Sigh, at lest this one was a question, not trying to convince me QATty
setup is wrong because we don't support non-default configs.

For short, your port's configure script fails to search for mysql
headers in the right place; QATty has LOCALBASE and PREFIX set
to /usr/PPP. If you can't sorted out in a few days drop me an email and
I'll take a look.
