Bug#551199: Unison 2.27.57 is not completely silent

[Ian S <ian@mrzesty.net>]

Package: unison
Version: 2.27.57-1+b1

The version of unison packaged with Lenny is no longer completely silent when 
the -silent option is used.  The previous version (in Etch) 
unison_2.13.16-5_amd64.deb works as expected.

When I run the unison command with the -silent option it now prints a message 
to stderr which was suppressed with the previous version.

Connected [//web01// -> //web02//var/www]

I use unison from cron every 5 minutes and I need it to be completely silent 
unless there is an error which I then need to see.

/usr/bin/unison /var/www socket://web01:7654 -owner -group -times -numericids 
-batch -silent -ignore 'Path .unison'

(In case you're wondering - I am using xinetd and chroot on the remote side to 
provide security which is why the remote path is not a full absolute path.)

# cat /etc/xinetd.d/unison-www
service unison-www
{
        type         = UNLISTED
        protocol     = tcp
        socket_type  = stream
        port         = 7654

        log_type     = SYSLOG daemon

        server       = /usr/sbin/chroot
        server_args  = /var/www /bin/unison -server
        instances    = 1

        user         = root
        wait         = no
        env          = HOME=/ UNISON=/.unison PATH=/bin
        passenv      =

        only_from    = 10.10.11.0/24

        log_on_success  = HOST PID DURATION
        log_on_failure  = HOST
    }

Thanks,

i.
