Hi Guillem, Thanks for the info, I wrongly assumed that the autopkgtest covered all examples from this issue. I'll update the autopkgtest and include a note that it can be seen as regression tests against this issue. I will create a patch and submit it upstream for handling program arguments on the command line. Regards, Håvard
