The official 0.2.8 release now works correctly when making backups with 
gzip.sh.

However, monthday.sh -c still does not work. But maybe it shouldn't work yet 
?

The first problem with monthday.sh is that the row:
while getopts ":Vh" o; do

Needs to be changed to
while getopts ":Vhc" o; do

But this just moves the problem, with the above change I can run monthday 
without an error message about incorrect in-parameters, but it still doesn't 
output anything at all.

I run it as:
root at xp2500:~/tmp# rdup -c /dev/null backup/200604 
|~/packages/rdup-0.2.8/sh-restore/monthday.sh -c
root at xp2500:~/tmp#

If I run rdup/monthday.sh without -c parameter they correctly output a list 
of all files.

I also noticed that the scripts in sh-restore directory is not installed 
when running "make install"

Just for information, I'll continue to do my backups with hdup so it is not 
urgent for me to get rdup restore working with gzip.sh. So if you have other 
things you want to give higher priority thats fine by me.
