It is better in general, because it is the usual thing. Also it doesn't need CL. Yes, but this will result in a endless loop if the regex does not match the program output for some reason (for instance, a new version of `gnutls' changes the wording of the messages). Right, but I think that is better than the chance of a failure due to randomness. Would you please post a change log for the patch? Then it will be installed.
