[mc-devel] [PATCH] recognize 'b2sums' for PKGBUILD syntax

i sent a pull request on github only to learn that patches are
not being accepted on github - i find this hard to accept, seeing
as the website states that the team now prefers using github
over savannah - why bother using github, if no bug reports or
patches are being accepted on github? - that makes no sense to me

if you are going to have the code on github, especially as
github is given as the primary code host, you must expect that
people will indeed be submitting contributions via github - in
fact, my guess is that more contributions are being offered via
github than any other way, regardless of the warning not to do
so - like it or not, thats what i expect will happen, simply
because nearly every programmer on earth has a github account
setup, and the github software is accepting pull requests for
midnight-commander

if the code is on github, you may as well accept those
contributions, or else i would remove the project from github
entirely, to avoid the confusion - for the purpose of merely
publishing the code, which is all you seem to be doing with
github, savannah was already more than adequate

anyways, please apply this small change - it recognizes 'b2sums'
for PKGBUILD syntax highlighting
(it is also https://github.com/MidnightCommander/mc/pull/182)
