Others have reported the same, but it appears to be dependant on the
Perl version or configuration that is used. However, since this
particular bit of the maint.pl script is essentially "dead code" (it
was a preparation for some new feature in the Big Brother bbd daemon
which - as far as I know - was never implemented), I've ripped it out
now and that should hopefully take care of this problem.

It's a bug in RC-3. Should be fixed now.

Both the --info and --info-update options are gone. I forgot to delete
them from the man-page, thanks for noticing.

If you want the info-column pages updated more frequently, change the
setting for the bb-infocolumn task in server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg
