I've just compiled unison 2.48.4 for my own. It works perfectly after normal call but unison-fsmonitor
doesn't deect any filesystem changes and doesn't synchronize anything. Filesystem is EXT4.
-debug all/verbose
doesn't bring any log. The only thing it puts on the terminal is VERSION 1
, after hitting any key it terminates with message: ERROR unknown%20command%20''
No mater whether invoked with sudo or as regular user.
Nothing in ~/.unison/unison.log
Any ideas about the possible reasons? Any ideas how to debug it?

with the linerepeat=watch
in your profile, or from the command line run
