I tried to run convert-tool from dovecot-1.2-0.rc2 on a tree of mbox files
with some containing dots in the filenames and got this failure:
# /usr/libexec/dovecot/convert-tool ken /home/ken mbox:/home/ken/mail
maildir:/home/ken/Maildir
Error: Mailbox conversion: Couldn't create mailbox Lists.WINE.patches:
Mailbox already exists
Error: Internal failure
*** glibc detected *** /usr/libexec/dovecot/convert-tool: double free or
corruption (fasttop): 0x08ce6cc8 ***
The directory in question contains these files:
# ls Lists/WINE/
announce bugs cvs devel patches patches.20050130
Will I need to go through the (large) file tree and rename all files with
dots in the names? If so, anyone have a script that will do that? (Changing
the dot to dash would be fine with me.)
