Hmm thinking about it, this does not make much sense. As such diversion is legitimate and would be equivalent to one w/o --rename, what might be questionable is the time it gets inserted, so I guess not doing the rename might be the right thing to do, I'll ponder about it a bit more after lunch. thanks, guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
