Ah, I see. Thanks for the info. In defense of my overlapping mail, I can only state that the reference header in this mail of yours does not point to the earlier thread (check [1]) and thus I saw it only much later: > References: <4d41331c.7000...@keymile.com> > In-Reply-To: <4d41331c.7000...@keymile.com> But anyway, sorry for the noise.
