[Live-devel] Suggestion: replace hard-coded errno values with symbolic constants in readSocket()

[Stefan Lengfeld]

Hi Ross,

I noticed a slight inconsistency. The new tarball has the version code 
"2026.08.07" in the filename and in the code, but the changelog contains 
the version string "2026.08.06".

Does it make sense to update the changelog to have a matching version 
name/code?

Cheers,
Stefan
