Hi Michael, Thanks for looking at my package again.

I first tried to create a patch, but I could not add it in a correct way. Then I thought that arguments to commands (such as "-a" in "ls -a") start with hyphens, and not with minus signs, so that lintian was actually wrong. I may be wrong about this though. Anyway for this reason I added a "lintian-override" file. I will add working patch in the next upload. > - The tar.gz file differs in the same way it did before. Why don't you use > exactly the file that can be downloaded from sf.net? I am very sorry. It is only now that I see that this is due to a bug in a script I used. This bug will not be present in the next upload.
