Package: bibtool
Version: 2.66+ds-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
With version 2.66 empty separators cause an error. For instance, using
fmt.name.name = {}
returns an error of "Invalid separator specification" and doesn't change
the default value of fmt.name.name. This was not a problem with the
previous version of bibtool.
I suspect (but am not completely sure) that this is a regression in
upstream caused by the commit 8221dced10ebb5427f98a6d602dbcfd43409eff2.
Thanks,
GI
