fdm for Debian
==============

When trying to deal with problems in fdm, it is commonly a good idea,
to send in fdm's output with a high level of verbosity enabled.
However, such a high level of verbosity will output user names and
passwords as well, which you normally do not want others to know
about. For that purpose, fdm's upstream author provides a small awk
script, that is supposed to filter out such authentication information
from fdm's output. This script, called 'fdm-sanitize', is shipped in
the 'examples' subdirectory of the package's documentation directory.

Thus, to generate debugging output, you can do something like this:
  % fdm -vvvv f 2>&1 | fdm-sanitize | tee saved-output
