Bug#339062: plucker-setup: can't ever get past pilot-xfer with no args
> Package: plucker
> Version: 1.8-11
> Severity: normal
> File: /usr/bin/plucker-setup

> The code:
> if not os.system('pilot-xfer > /dev/null 2>&1'):

> will cause an infinite wait, as one can see:
> $ pilot-xfer
> ERROR: Insufficient number of arguments

> Hit any key to continue..

> And if that hurdle is removed, one must then face e.g.,
> Unable to open '/usr/share/plucker/palm/viewer_zh_CN.prc'!

This bug should be corrected if you use pilot-link from experimental (0.11.8-0.12.0-pre4-5) since we now have:
$ pilot-xfer
Usage: pilot-xfer [-p|--port <port>] [--version] [-q|--quiet] [-?|--help]
[--usage] [-b|--backup dir] [-u|--update dir] [-s|--sync dir]
[-r|--restore dir] [-i|--install] [-f|--fetch] [-m|--merge] [--delete]
[-l|--list] [-C|--cardinfo] [-P|--Purge] [-a|--archive dir]
[-e|--exclude file] [-D|--vfsdir dir] [--rom] [--with-os] [--illegal]
[-x|--exec command]
Sync, backup, install, delete and more from your Palm device.
This is the swiss-army-knife of the entire pilot-link suite.
Use exactly one of -brsudfimlI; mix in -aexDPv, --rom and --with-os.
Can you confirm the bug is solved that way?
Thanks,
