Subject: bug#9157: [PATCH] dd: sparse conv flag
Date: Sat, 06 Aug 2011 16:52:46 -0400
This bug was reported via bcc. Because of this, the bug tracking system
did not know which package it was associated with and assigned it to
debbugs.gnu.org. I have reassigned it to the coreutils package and am
sending this so that the bug-coreutils mailing list sees the report.
