Though I'm confused, does this mean the binary on the Debian servers was built wrongly? Don't they use automated scripts to build them? Anyway, I suppose this would be fixed if they rebuild the package now!? The main problem (writing doesn't work) was a misunderstanding. It works with "1=rw", or "2=rw" and "-o cow". (Also with the original version, despite the warning.) I only realized this when, after building it, I found the "test.sh" script and wondered why it did work Note that the only mention of "rw" (and "ro") in the man page is under examples, not in the main description which just says: top_branch:lower_branch:...:lowest_branch I suggest writing something like this to prevent such misunderstandings: top_branch[=ro|rw]:lower_branch[=ro|rw]:...:lowest_branch[=ro|rw] Frank -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
