--- Begin Message ---Package: fdupes Version: 1:2.1.2-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, I used fdupes in order to delete duplicate files in a directory with one subdirectory : fdupes -r -d . There came 6 sets of files As I did before with debian 10, I chose to preserve one file each time. ex : Set 5 of 6: [-] ./9296.epub.epub [+] ./calibre_bust/Samuel Richardson/Clarissa Harlowe; or the history of a young lady -- Volume 1 (219)/Clarissa Harlowe; or th e history of a youn - Samuel Richardson.epub Set 6 of 6: 1 [-] ./pg59774-images.epub 2 [+] ./calibre_bust/H. G. Wells/30 Strange Stories (225)/30 Strange Stories - H. G. Wells.epub Usualy, the program would stop deleting unwanted files. But with debian 11.1 The only way to stop is Crtl C then exit and no files are deleted. If I answer no to exit, same questions come back again. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-9-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages fdupes depends on: ii libc6 2.31-13+deb11u2 ii libncursesw6 6.2+20201114-2 ii libpcre2-32-0 10.36-2 ii libtinfo6 6.2+20201114-2 fdupes recommends no packages. fdupes suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
