[haiku-development] Where should feature requests be posted? (Dane Scott - TuneTracker Systems)
Hey there,
For a feature request (as opposed to a bug report), what’s the best place to
post it? Here, at dev.haiku-os.org, or some other location?
I want to see if it’s possible to add a feature to SoundRecorder so that it
remembers its save-as location from one session to the next. Currently, it’s
hard-wired to insist on /home (requiring browsing every time, to save elsewhere
unless you do a drag and drop save).

[haiku-development] Non-standard headers in default compiler search path (Adrien Destugues)
Hi,
I am working with the cdrecord developer to get it working on Haiku
again. We found that /system/develop/headers/compatibility/bsd is in the
compiler default include search path. This is a bit annoying, because
the purpose of this folder is to hold non-standard functions we copied
from the *BSD. This means the function names are not reserver and
possibly a standard C application could redefine them (and use the same
names for something completely different).

I think that sounds like a somewhat neat solution to our immediate lack

I still don't understand what is so horribly known broken. (trac also
confirms 0 blockers that are PM related). Our packages do need rebuilt

continuously update the same installation through today... that's pretty

Excellent, I haven’t had to roll back either (I’m just using VMware and take a
snapshot before I update) but the state folders didn’t all have exactly the
