Subject: got everything building but not working
X-Git-Url: https://feistymeow.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9954650aaceac7b96a7a670c13a6bfb15653415b;p=feisty_meow.git

got everything building but not working

the shutdown alerter doesn't even work in its most basic version on linux.
plus we have serious concerns about how this will work from across applications, which the
shutdown alerter on windows is great about.
currently, the test is disabled so it won't blow up.  needs love.
