Re: makedumpfile fail to strip pages

Hello,

we have built a new package using the latest commit (bd30437c6292) and are unable to reproduce the issue.
All dumps were correctly stripped and completed successfully.

We will monitor the situation and come back if we see further issues.
Thank you for your assistance.

Best,
Martin
