Hello,
after more than a year, I am resending this message I already sent in
Feb 2018:
two more weeks have passed, and with the revised patch there was not a
single incident with a truncated INI file.
To make applying the patch easier, find attached a patch against version
2.3.4-1.1, which is currently in "testing".
If there is anything else I can help with, please don't hesitate to
contact me.
