I've just upgraded ikiwiki from version 1.45 to 1.49, using my own Ubuntu Gutsy backport. Now I can't rebuild all my wiki pages. Both methods of rebuilding pages fail: $ sudo ikiwiki-mass-rebuild Processing /home/ptecza/path/to/ikiwiki.setup as user ptecza ... failed to set egid 1000 4 20 24 25 29 30 44 46 104 109 110 119 1000 (got back 1000 1000 119 110 109 104 46 44 30 29 25 24 20 4) at /usr/sbin/ikiwiki-mass-rebuild line 38, <$list> line 13.
