 confirmed cats=no is working now

 > > `v.build.polylines` is indeed copying all attribute tables as is from
 input to output, but the categories are processed according to the cats
 option. This means that the attribute table(s) can contain spurious
 entries that do not match any output feature. Other (not all) modules also
 copy attribute tables from input to output as is, without filtering.
 Usually, this does not harm and is not even noticeable.

 above should go into the manual.

 > Is this ticket solved?

 downgrading priority; closing ticket when manual is extended.
