Hi Martin,
Were the errors, underlined above, the actual on screen errors as
printed? If so then it is sloppy coding and a bug should be filed.
If not, but caused by mistyping on your part, then could you please in
future either:
1) cut 'n' paste errors into your email client.
or
2) use the script program or redirection and then "read" the program
into your email program.
If you are using mutt + vim, then from within vim while you are
composing your mail:
* move the cursor to where you want to type the errors produced
* press <esc> to get in command mode
* type :r filename
where filename is the file either from using script or from using
redirection.
Mistakes in transcribing error messages can only lead two confusions.
:-)
