Package: moreutils
Version: 0.37
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/vidir

The ID and filename are separated by tabs. If the tab is replaced by
a space, vidir adds the space to the filename and fails:

  /usr/bin/vidir: failed to rename ./foo to  ./foo: No such file or directory
                                            ^^
                                            note here the space

I think it wouldn't harm to make vidir use whitespace-separated
fields (and keep line records), instead of insisting on the use of
tabs.
