(it's probably a bug in the code, you'll have to wait for a new version?)


they quick & very dirty way to copy a vector map is to go into
$MAPSET/vector/ and just copy the folder with the vector to something
named something else, then do the same with $MAPSET/dbf/$MAPNAME.dbf
using the same name, and finally update the $MAPSET/vector/$MAPNAME/dbln
file in a text editor.
