The above would have to be
cat /home/xma/removetest.txt | ./remove_members --fromall -f -
But that won't work either because there is a bug in remove_members. It
insists on having at least one argument in addition to the options.
Clearly this should not be required in the case where --fromall and
-f|--file are both specified.
I'll fix this for 2.1.7. In the mean time, you can work around this
with the command
sudo ./remove_members -f /home/xma/removetest.txt --fromall dummy_arg
or
sudo ./remove_members --fromall -f /home/xma/removetest.txt dummy_arg
where dummy_arg can be anything. And BTW, don't but quotes around the
addresses in the file.
Or you can test the following patch for me :-)
