Yes. zzuf's behaviour is deterministic, so this should be reproducible
anywhere, at least using zzuf 0.12-1.
Nice.
I'm also using zzuf 0.12-1.
Ok, I managed to find a reproducible test that should be run at the
root of the current po4a CVS source:
zzuf -I po/pod/ po4a po/pod.cfg
I let it run (and use one of my two CPU cores) for a while, and lost
patience, considering it was really deadlocked or lost inside an
infinite loop.
[...]
Running "zzuf -I po/pod/ this_script.pl" at the root of the
CVS source
reproduces this deadlock / infinite loop behavior after processing
po/pod/fr.po:1744.
I could not reproduce these until I remember that I fixed 470250 locally.
(This is the infinite loop I mentioned earlier with WrapI18N)
You can avoid this issue by prepending COLUMNS=1000 before the commands.
