Thanks for the hint. I forwarded it to our maintainer and if needed we will release a new update. -- Bye, Thomas -- Thomas Biege <thomas@suse.de>, SUSE LINUX, Security Support & Auditing -- Imagine there's no countries, It isnt hard to do, Nothing to kill or die for, No religion too, ... -- John Lennon (Imagine Lyrics)

The file/directory layout of the package wasn't changed. fou4s version prior 0.13.0 (released last weeek) had problems with the biarch support. To track this issue down have a look at: /var/log/fou4s.log -- Bye, Thomas -- Thomas Biege <thomas@suse.de>, SUSE LINUX, Security Support & Auditing -- Imagine there's no countries, It isnt hard to do, Nothing to kill or die for, No religion too, ... -- John Lennon (Imagine Lyrics)

Thanks - sorry for putting the blame where it didn't belong. And it still crashes with fou4s 0.13.0-1. But at least then I know that issuing manual updates on that package is safe.
