tags 527014 -fixed-upstream thanks The upstream patch does not fix the complete problem described in this Debian bug report. The patch addresses the case where name collisions happen by truncation, but not other cases.
Some uniquification needs to happen beyond this "randomly change filenames" stuff; but at least, it needs to address cases more generally. I have 120 files in my music library titled "1.mp3". These will not be truncated, and because the ipod support limits itself to one hundred directories, I can have no more than one hundred of these at a time. And even that's a problem, because it tries five random directories per file, and then gives up. Something like this patch should be done on *every* filename, not just the truncated ones.
