>Description:
send-pr sometimes after you have written your bug report and exit the
editor, will say
send-pr: Aborting...
and deletes your bug report without sending it. Enormously irritating!
This actually was happening often long time ago, but it went away for
at least several months. Now its back, or is happening less often.
It first ate my previous PR, then I rewrote it and it worked, and
tried to PR this problem, and again send-pr ate the report (but
learning from experience, I had written the buffer to a safe place
before exiting the editor!).
>How-To-Repeat:
Author lots of bug reports.
It may or may not help to use emacs to edit the pr's.
>Fix:
As a workaround I would suggest:
< # Catch some signals. ($xs kludge needed by Sun /bin/sh)
< xs=0
< trap 'rm -f $REF $TEMP; exit $xs' 0
< trap 'echo "$COMMAND: Aborting ..."; rm -f $REF $TEMP; xs=1; exit' 1 2 3 13 15

> trap 'rm -f $REF $TEMP; exit $xs' 0
> trap 'echo "$COMMAND: Aborting ..."; echo $REF $TEMP 'left around, clean up manually'; xs=1; exit' 1 2 3 13 15
This does not fix the actual problem, why does it get a signal? A bug in sh?
