Package: binstats
Version: 1.08-5
Severity: normal

Hi,

When I run binstats like this,

    binstats  >/dev/null  2>"${etmp}"  -file="${btmp}"

I get this error message printed onto stderr (${etmp}),

    readlink: too many argument

I suspect this is a quoting problem,

    $ grep readlink /usr/bin/binstats
    # A wrapper around readlink(1).
        readlink -f $f || echo $f
        readlink -f $f || echo $f
       readlink -f "$1" || echo "$1"

since these patches seem to cause the error message disappear,

Changes: 
 binstats (1.08-7) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Adopting this package, as makejail Depends: on it (Closes: #292019)
   * Updated Standard-Versions:
     * Adjusted CFLAGS and LDFLAGS in debian/rules just in case
       the binaries are built again
     * Fixed binary-arch for the same reason, althoug the package remains
       Arch: all
   * Quote readlink calls (Closes: #218647)
   * Add the package to the unused library list (Closes: #146465)
   * Add a check to review which of the packages holding unused libraries
     are not used at all.
   * Redirect error output of the find call to /dev/null (in case it
     finds dangling symlinks)
   * Use mktemp instead of mkdir to prevent a race condition
   * Change the script so BSLOG and BSLOGTMP are created before they are
     used, this does not prevent some race conditions so don't run
     this script in untrusted directories.
   * Remove debugging output in Makefile, if present
