Bug#587179: dlocate -- -mp3 fails
Hey Norbert, I am currently going through some bugs which I am fixing through NMUs and I stumbled accross dlocate which has quite a few easily fixable bugs. I already fixed the manpage bugs and created an NMU in the DELAYED/5 queue [1]. I set up a github repository for my changes [2] and I would like to integrate your patch as well, of course. Could you please check whether your patch still applies and create an updated one, if necessary? I would then create a new Debian revision of dlocate and upload it later since the maintainer seems to be MIA. If you like, you can also adopt the package yourself :). Cheers, Adrian [1] http://ftp-master.debian.org/deferred.html [2] https://github.com/glaubitz/dlocate -- .''`.
