Subject: Bug#3937: uutraf has repeated words in messages and is not explicit

From: Yves Arrouye <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 26 Jul 1996 14:54:55 +0200

Package: uucp
Version: 1.06.1-2

I got this message:

	marin106# uutraf /var/log/uucp/Log /var/log/uucp/Stats
	uutraf: Parsing error line line 2 of /etc/uucp/uutraf.cf

Note the repetition of 'line' in the error message.

The problem was that the line was empty. Maybe uutraf could silently
ignore such lines?
 
In addition to that, the line was not line 2: it was the second uncommented
line in the file. It would be a lot more helpful if the error message
refered to the physical line in the file instead.

Yves.
