Avoid errors from selecting "no selection" on multilink (issue2550722).
As discussed in issue 2550722 there are various cases where selecting
"no selection" on a multilink can result in inappropriate errors from
Roundup:
* If selecting "no selection" produces a null edit (a value was set in
the multilink in an edit with an error, then removed again, along
with all other changes, in the next form submission), so the page is
rendered from the form contents including the "-<id>" value for "no
selection" for the multilink.
* If creating an item with a nonempty value for a multilink has an
error, and the resubmission changes that multilink to "no selection"
(and this in turn has subcases, according to whether the creation
then succeeds or fails on the resubmission, which need fixes in
different places in the Roundup code).
All of these cases have in common that it is expected and OK to have a
"-<id>" value for a submission for a multilink when <id> is not set in
that multilink in the database (because the original attempt to set
<id> in that multilink had an error), so the hyperdb.py logic to give
an error in that case is thus removed. In the subcase of the second
case where the resubmission with "no selection" has an error, the
templating code tries to produce a menu entry for the "-<id>"
multilink value, which also results in an error, hence the
templating.py change to ignore such values in the list for a
multilink.

.TH ROUNDUP-MAILGW 1 "24 January 2003" .SH NAME roundup-mailgw \- mail gateway for roundup .SH SYNOPSIS \fBroundup-mailgw\fP \fIinstance_home\fP [\fImethod\fP] .SH OPTIONS .TP \fB-v\fP Print version and exit. .TP \fB-C\fP \fIhyperdb class\fP specify a tracker class - one of msg (the default), issue, file, user - to manipulate with -S options .TP \fB-S\fP \fIproperty\fP\fB=\fP\fIvalue\fP[\fB;\fP\fIproperty\fP\fB=\fP\fIvalue\fP] \fIpairs\fP specify the values to set on the class specified by -C using the same format as the Subject line property manipulations .SH DESCRIPTION The roundup mail gateway may be called in one of three ways: .IP \(bu with an instance home as the only argument, .IP \(bu with both an instance home and a mail spool file, or .IP \(bu with both an instance home and a pop server account. .PP \fBPIPE\fP .br In the first case, the mail gateway reads a single message from the standard input and submits the message to the roundup.mailgw module. \fBUNIX mailbox\fP .br In the second case, the gateway reads all messages from the mail spool file and submits each in turn to the roundup.mailgw module. The file is emptied once all messages have been successfully handled. The file is specified as: \fImailbox /path/to/mailbox\fP In all of the following the username and password can be stored in a ~/.netrc file. In this case only the server name need be specified on the command-line. The username and/or password will be prompted for if not supplied on the command-line or in ~/.netrc. \fBPOP\fP .br In the third case, the gateway reads all messages from the POP server specified and submits each in turn to the roundup.mailgw module. The server is specified as: \fBpop\fP \fIusername\fP\fB:\fP\fIpassword\fP\fB@\fP\fIserver\fP .br The username and password may be omitted: \fBpop\fP \fIusername\fP\fB@\fP\fIserver\fP \fBpop\fP \fIserver\fP .br are both valid. The username and/or password will be prompted for if not supplied on the command-line. \fBAPOP\fP .br Same as POP, but using Authenticated POP: \fBapop\fP \fIusername\fP\fB:\fP\fIpassword\fP\fB@\fP\fIserver\fP \fBIMAP\fP .br Connect to an IMAP server. This supports the same notation as that of POP mail. \fBimap\fP \fIusername\fP\fB:\fP\fIpassword\fP\fB@\fP\fIserver\fP .br It also allows you to specify a specific mailbox other than INBOX using this format: \fBimap\fP \fIusername\fP\fB:\fP\fIpassword\fP\fB@\fP\fIserver mailbox\fP \fBIMAPS\fP .br Connect to an IMAP server over ssl. This supports the same notation as IMAP. \fBimaps\fP \fIusername\fP\fB:\fP\fIpassword\fP\fB@\fP\fIserver\fP [\fImailbox\fP] .SH AUTHOR This manpage was written by Bastian Kleineidam <calvin@debian.org> for the Debian distribution of roundup.
