Just to set things straight:
- The trailing space wasn't added, it was copy-pasted from the rest of
the file which has it everywhere.
- I wasn't confused about 8.0 vs. 9.0, the fixture is simply *that* old.
It doesn't matter if the data is "correct" (and it won't be, in a year
or 5), but it needs datums that cover the data model or you can't test
your changes.
Guess why I was apprehensive about asking for an update and waiting for
someone to find the time. :)
- Yes, the whole fixture file is really hopelessly out of date and
useless for testing, so If you're going to update it with live data
, great, but if not please reconsider the patch - I spent about as much
time fixing things so I could test my (trivial) change as the change itself.
