Subject: [PATCH] genhomedircon: cleanup parsing of uid config values
Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2025 12:36:26 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251021113626.40772-1-nvraxn@gmail.com> (raw)
Parsing KV files with a separator of similar format is fairly similar,
so we may as well add a helper function to make it easier to read.
