Perfectly understandable.

By the way, I suggest applying this patch as well [1]. In the 9.11
release, short writes could cause issues with 'tee'. It was a silly
mistake on my part, and cause SUSE some issues.

The patch applies with NEWS removed. E.g., like this:

   $ sed '1,49d' 0d6fcb99d691d920961938e61c43478566ef626e.patch > fix.patch
   $ patch -p1 < fix.patch
