[rancid] Term Length/Whitespace issues when running manually

[Martin, Seth]

We've made a habit of manually running rancid on single devices to
attach the output to our ticketing system.  For whatever reason when we
do this we have a large delta of whitespace and line wrap issues.
Everything is Cisco IOS or PIXOS/ASA and specified as Cisco in the
config.  I believe we are using 2.3.2a2, maybe its been resolved in
2.3.2a7...

 

Daily cron job runs don't return white space issues.  Also on occasion
when running rancid-run -r we get changes in our routers.db file even
though nothing has changed there.  Doing a full rancid-run from a bash
shell also seems to cause similar issues vs the standard cron...

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated :-)
