Bug Description

Binary package hint: plait

Hi,

if you start plait with
$ plait

you got the following error messages
/usr/bin/plait: 942: Syntax error: "else" unexpected

Looking at the script, it seems to me that the patch from january missed one "else" and one "fi". I attached a patch for the script. Maybe someone adds those lines to the ubuntu patch.

Best regards,

Dennis
