Re: Check whitelist file and if not there add to whitelist

In your message dated Sun, 21 Aug 2005 21:37:46 +0200, Dallman said that ...

This comes from a missing close-quote or close-paren somewhere
up
above.  That would also explain why you can't figure out why
it's
stopped working.

Couldn't find any missing quotes or brackets, but I have a program that
shows hidden characters, and there were quite a few in the recipe. Removed
those, and all works again.

Okay, it could be that fgrep on your system is
different.
Check your punctuation (quote marks and parens) up above,
before
this recipe.

Or comment out the entire recipe and look at your verbose
logs.
I'll bet you'll still see those "skipped" things.

Yes, the skipped items were from other problems in the rc file, fixed them
all, one by one.

Note: I had something like that happen last month, and it
took
me about an hour of exasperated testing to figure out where
it
was.  I could not see the missing punctuation for the life of
me.
It was oddly hidden most of the time, because only a
certain
condition that evaluated true seldomly made it
happen.

It only took me most of the day, <g>. Thanks to everyone for the help,
especially you Dallman. Much appreciated.
