God, You are absolutelly RIGHT!. Shame on me!.
> You have to download the lastest patchdiag.xref from Sunsolve
That's the question. I just downloaded the file with "wget" and
directory lists:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root other 430400 Jan 20 15:02 patchdiag.xref
-rw-r--r-- 1 root other 447356 Jan 20 15:12 patchdiag.xref.1
the ".1" is the new file, just downloaded with "wget". I didnīt know
that "wget" had renamed the file!, so I was using an outdated "xref".
Thank you!.
