But that’s for Apple’s X server, so maybe Bash’s is different? But I couldn’t find anything about that in a quick google search.
- m463 6y agorootless.h in bash seems to be related to system integrity protection. Don't know why Apple doesn't just devote 1 engineer to do something like homebrew or macports. Their ROI just on hardware sales will be very high. Maybe all the unix guys retired or left and there are only round window corner xcode guys left.
- saagarjha 6y agoApple does have a handful of engineers working with/on open source projects; whether is a part of their official job duties I don’t know. But it is much appreciated. However, to the person doing open source tarballs: please respond to emails and be quicker about uploading thankyouverymuch
- solarkraft 6y ago> whether is a part of their official job duties I don’t know Certainly. From what I've read here on HN you basically can't publish a line of code (or even star things on Github) ob your own, presumably for secrecy reasons.
- saagarjha 6y agoBy official job duties I mean "my manager has told me to spend half my time contributing to MacPorts" versus "my manager (and my manager's manager, and their superior, all the way up the chain to the top, plus legal) has allowed me to send commits to to MacPorts even though I work on embedded platforms".
