Thanks for the patch. I will include some of them. But there are some others that need clarification and improvement:

  • Replacement for rpmatch: rpmatch is localized and the message from davfs2 is localized too. So the replacement code must accept answers in the same language as the message. I think that could be done using gettext. Any proposal?


  • conanonicalize_file_name: As far as I know realpath(char *path, NULL) behaves exactly like canonicalize_file_name. This is standardized in POSIX.1-2008 (allocating the buffer as needed). Does musl libc support it? I intended to change to realpath anyway.


  • error_at line: I prefer to use error instead and add filename and line number in the message string of error. This will  avoid the need for that compat file. I will do this.


  • error.h: Moving the include <error.h> into another header would break the coding style. Instead I will make the include conditional in every source file where it is needed.


  • Neon error messages: printing the neon error messages into the logfile proved to be very useful and disabling it would be a big disadvantage. Havn't you any better idea how to replace that missing function? Disabling this feature would be the last resort.

Hi,

I'd like to get our (voidlinux) patches merged upstream that allow us to build davfs2-1.5.6 in both glibc and musl.

We were using these patches a while ago and nobody has reported any issue so I assume these are ok.

Patches attached.

Thanks.
