At least my projects live up to this pretty well. You usually get a few releases in a row, followed by a period of no activity at all. This is because after releases is when all the bugs surface. As you may have guessed, version 1.09 is not far away. In the mean while, please avoid the "--delete-keys" feature, as it may corrupt (not irrevocably so, but still) the filemap file by replacing the deleted entries with empty ones. In the mean while, as a workaround, if the file does get corrupted, the following command should fix it: tr -s '\0' < corrupt_filemap > good_filemap Shachar |
