Hello,

I hope this is the right place to this, please correct me if not.

There is a little bug in plogin. Line 70-71:

$cmd .= " -s '$opt_s'" if (length($opt_s));
$cmd .= " -t $opt_s" if (length($opt_t));

should be:

$cmd .= " -s '$opt_s'" if (length($opt_s));
$cmd .= " -t $opt_t" if (length($opt_t));

Currently, due probably to a copy-paste not edited, $opt_s is used as
value for option -t.

Hope this helps and thanks very much to heasley and all the Rancid
contributors.

Have a nice day,
