If the patch is a good idea you should also change this line.

Thank you, Carl Eugen

Fixed locally.

Will push soon, if nothing else.

Thanks,

Have you considered you may be breaking some user's scripts?

Carl Eugen's comment was in no way an approval of your patch. Pushing a
patch without a second positive opinion in less than half a day...

Ah yes, Sorry, this is used for parsing. What protocol do you suggest 
for correcting this?

Any thoughts on this?

I see that there were two changes made to value fields of the progress 
report earlier this year - a194e9c4159 and 1322b00060

Not really. I suppose you could add the field with the correct name and
remove the bogus one later. But your thoughts on this are probably
better than mine.

It is true, but past mistakes cannot be used to justify new ones.

Also, it seems to me theses changes are much less serious: 1322b00060
only changes the precision in a compatible way, while the second only
changes anything when the required value is unavailable.

That will just defer the breaking change. The options, as I see it, are

wontfix, or

push with a easily grepped intuitive commit msg for those who like to 
use nightly builds and want to know why their script is (partially) 
broken. Best done at the time of a new release.

That will leave people time to notice the change and allow old and new
scripts to work during the transition.
