Summary: ftpadmin install --force $tarball fails to do what it
says on the tin
Classification: Infrastructure
Product: sysadmin
Version: unspecified
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: FTP
AssignedTo: [email protected]

GNOME version: ---
I installed a tracker 0.15.3 tarball but the compiled sources (.c files from
Vala included in the tarball) were incorrect. See this bug for details if
you're interested:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691807
However, when using ftsadmin install --force, I expected the command to
overwrite the tarball originally uploaded for the new one. Technically, there
is no difference in the git repository to warrant a new release.
When I try this, I get:
[mr@master ~]$ ftpadmin install -f tracker-0.15.3.tar.gz
Gathering information and sorting on version: ., done
Preparing installation of tracker-0.15.3.tar.gz:
ERROR: tracker-0.15.3.tar.gz already exists in the archive!

This looks like a bug in the script. Of course the package already exists in
the archive.
The documentation says:
-f, --force Overwrite the original tarball
If --force is not meant for this, what is it meant for?
