    From rswindell@VERT to CVS commit on Fri Oct 16 20:40:56 2015
    src/sbbs3 pack_qwk.cpp 1.66 1.67
    Update of /cvsroot/sbbs/src/sbbs3
    In directory cvs:/tmp/cvs-serv8507

    Modified Files:
    pack_qwk.cpp
    Log Message:
    Fix bug reported by Josh Ramsey: QWK packets created for QWKnet accounts
    should not have the "include message by self" setting applied - the hub should include all messages from all authors in all cases. The symptom of the problem was that messages posted by a user with the "Real Name" value of the QWKnet account would not be included in the QWKnet account for the node. This was
    most obvious in networked message areas where the same user may post from multiple nodes and see a lack of message propagation.

    For offline QWK packet creation (daily pre-pack or FTP downloads):
    1. check if user is online before starting any scanning/packing
    2. log a message when aborting scan/pack due to user online

    Modified Files:
    pack_qwk.cpp
    Log Message:
    No longer set QWKnet user QWK-related settings automatically for Q-restricted accounts. For the longest time, if a Q-restricted (QWKnet node) user had Ctrl-A codes set to "Leave-in", it would automatically set "No Index",
    "No Control Files", "All Email", "Delete Email". But since we can't really assume that all Q-resricted accounts are Synchronet systems, we're no longer going to make these assumptions and over-ride what the user has set.

    I notice it months ago (don't ask me when), just before the message echos (ie a precent number going up, on qwk account's)

    Fix NDX file creation when votes are included in QWK packets

    When both Indexes (NDX files) and vote messages are included in a QWK packet (an unexpected, but valid combination), the "Record number" stored in NDX files for subs with votes would be incorrect as it did not increment when a vote message (with no body text) was added to the messages.dat file.

    Reported by user that was trying to use MultiMail to read a QWK packet that included both votes and indexes and "IgnoreNDX: No" in their .mmailrc file.

    Would a Sept 29th build be affected by this behaviour? I run 2 boards (one 'public'[alleycat] one 'private'[ephram]. On ephram (realm of dispair) I use a runemaster web ui variant (which does not support voting) and there are missing posts or posts not being displayed, or is this a multimail specific thing?

    It's a QWK offline reader specific thing.

    Better error handling in QWK packet creation

    If libarchive creates a 0-byte file or no file at all, then fall-through to the "temp file command-line" (if there is at least one Compressible File Type configured).

    If libarchive fails, there will still be a (hopefully helpful) error message logged, but at least the QWK packet may still get created.
