Since my LVM2-volumes boast rather long device names, I noticed
the "sysinfo"-script failing on linebreaks the `df`-utility produces to
prettyprint its output in that case. GNU `df` features a switch, "-P" (for
POSIX compatibility) which does not allow for each filesystems' statistics to
take up more than one line. The trivial fix is to call `df -lP` instead of
`df -l`; the awk-magic dealing with the rest of the stuff to calculate
diskspace does not need to be tampered with.
The somewhat pathetic proposed patch is attached to this message, or to be
found at http://gnulords.org/~colo/src/sysinfo.patch
Please note: This may break the script on systems lacking the GNU-version of
`df`, as these versions may not feature the "-P"-flag. Since I don't use any
such system, I cannot check this.
