thanks

The upstream patch does not fix the complete problem described in this
Debian bug report.  The patch addresses the case where name collisions
happen by truncation, but not other cases.

Some uniquification needs to happen beyond this "randomly change
filenames" stuff; but at least, it needs to address cases more
generally.  I have 120 files in my music library titled "1.mp3".  These
will not be truncated, and because the ipod support limits itself to one
hundred directories, I can have no more than one hundred of these at a
time.  And even that's a problem, because it tries five random
directories per file, and then gives up.

Something like this patch should be done on *every* filename, not just
the truncated ones.

Thomas
