Re: [Crash-utility] A patch for match_file_string()

Can you test the attached patch on both a live system and a dumpfile?
It strips the linefeed from the version string when it's initialized,
and makes a couple other minor adjustments, including to the first Ubuntu
patch, which shouldn't be required any more.
Hi Dave,
your patch works fine. I agree it is safer to strip directly kt->procversion
as match_file_string() is a general-purpose function and can be eventually
used for something very different.
