Package: dar Severity: normal Hi again,
This bug is really only half fixed. The wording of the message is a bit clearer now, though it could be improved if the answer was "Yes | No", for example, rather than "OK | Cancel". Cancel implies cancelling an operation in progress (i.e. the program itself - this was my original interpretation of the message), rather than denying a proposed action. But also, the regex the program is using to detect whether slices of old archives exists catches too many cases. Again I was in the situation where I had an archive titled such as "example.large" transforming to "example". dar_xform has no need to complain about this situation. I can only presume the regex is parsing the ".large" part of the name as the slice number, rather the real slice number that immediately follows it.
