Subject: mutable/publish: don't loop() right away upon DeadReferenceError. Closes #877
X-Git-Tag: trac-4200~51
X-Git-Url: https://git.rkrishnan.org/vdrive/%22news.html/running.html?a=commitdiff_plain;h=419a076f59b93e66ff799244a6c0a85e9070e21d;p=tahoe-lafs%2Ftahoe-lafs.git

mutable/publish: don't loop() right away upon DeadReferenceError. Closes #877

The bug was that a disconnected server could cause us to re-enter the initial
loop() call, sending multiple queries to a single server, provoking an
incorrect UCWE. To fix it, stall the loop() with an eventual.fireEventually()
