Package: quotatool Version: 1.6.2-6 quotatool fails trying to adjust the grace time:

Since 1.6.3 and 1.6.4 are pure bugfix releases it shouldn't be an issue updating this tool without breaking anything in the system. As I guess that it's against debian policy to bump up the version, might it be possible to get this in backports? A quick test of the current git version 1.6.4 in bookworm confirmed its functionality again. 0 root@test-fs:~/quotatool/git/quotatool-master_1.6.4$ ./quotatool -vvv -u -b -t "2 weeks" /home quotatool: option: 'v', argument: '(null)' quotatool: option: 'u', argument: '(null)' quotatool: not mangling: NULL user quotatool: using uid (null) quotatool: option: 'b', argument: '(null)' quotatool: working with block limits quotatool: option: 't', argument: '2 weeks' quotatool: using filesystem /home quotatool: Looking for fs_spec '/home' quotatool: Checking device 'sysfs', mounted at '/sys' ... snip ... quotatool: Checking device '/dev/xvdb1', mounted at '/home' quotatool: filesystem /home has device node /dev/xvdb1 quotatool: Detecting quota format quotatool: Detected quota format: VFSV1 quotatool: Detected quota interface: GENERIC quotatool: fetching quotas: device='/dev/xvdb1',id='0' quotatool: quotatool: Limit Old New quotatool: ----- --- --- quotatool: block grace: 25200 1209600 quotatool: >> set global block gracetime 0 root@test-fs:~/quotatool/git/quotatool-master_1.6.4$ Best regards Christian
