Before you compile Eggdrop version 1.6.21 , read this - jack3 - 29-09-2012

Some time ago, I contacted Spike, who wrote the very popular BogusTrivia game script for Eggdrop.  Strange things were happening, after upgrading to Eggrop 1.6.21.  Others (thommey, nml_375, and more) from some #eggdrop channels, etc. became involved.

To make a looooong story short, they finally pinned it down, and provided a solution.
(As I understand it, there is no plan to release a 1.6.22, thus every time you compile 1.6.21, you should make this edit before compiling)

Many thanks to all that spent their time on it.    Smile

Resolves a bug in Eggdrop 1.6.21's utimers command which could cause Tcl scripts not to function correctly, as reported in this forum discussion.
