Yup, we're on it. Denis did detect this quite quickly, and Tomohiro KUBOTA
did provide us the Perl code sniplet which will fix the issue. It was
discussed off list because one of us did switch to private email by error,
sorry for not informing you about that.
It only has to be done. Denis did say that he may fix the issue, so I leave
him a bit more time. He cannot mail at day and I cannot mail at night, so
coordinating our efforts is a bit difficult and takes some days. But if he
don't want to do this, I'll patch the data extraction scripts happily.
The point is that those scripts run outside of my intervention range: I'm
not DD, and I cannot remove the DB if it become corrupted because of my
broken commits against the scripts. That makes me kind of reluctant to
change these points without Denis's approval and review.
Thanks for reporting anyway, Mt.
