Two bugs in 0.12.6: offline mode, deleted file detection SuSE 9.2

#1: in offline mode, fou4s --import of a newer "offlinehost.fou" file
    does not appear to have any effect.

    Scenario:
    OFFLINEHOST: fou4s --export offlinehost.fou
    (transfer .fou file)
    NETWORKHOST: fou4s --import offlinehost.fou
                 fou4s -u --host offlinehost --export updates.tar   # 1st
    (transfer .tar file)
    OFFLINEHOST: fou4s --import updates.tar -i
                 fou4s --export offlinehost.fou
    (transfer .fou file)
    NETWORKHOST: fou4s --import offlinehost.fou
                 fou4s -u --host offlinehost --export updates.tar   # 2nd

    BUG HERE: the 2nd fou4s -u --host ... --export run exports all
    updates that had already been exported in the 1st run.

    It is necessary to remove the cache for offlinehost (rm -rf
    /var/cache/fou4s/.cache.offlinehost) and re-import the .fou file to
    clear this condition. Perhaps importing a .fou file should
    implicitly clear the file.

    I can reproduce this anytime and provide more detailed data if desired.

#2: on SuSE 9.2, deleted files in use by running processes are not
    reliably detected. lsof does not print filename-RPMDELETE or
    filename;12345678 files, but instead something like this:

    /lib/some/library (path inode=12345)

    I observed this with today's firefox update, but haven't kept a
    screendump. I reproduced this by reinstalling gnome-terminal,
    excerpt:

    # lsof -n -F pcn -c gnome-terminal
    p6880
    cgnome-terminal
    n/home/ma
    n/
    n/opt/gnome/bin/gnome-terminal
    [...]
    n/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/lib/common/xlcUTF8Load.so.2
    n/opt/gnome/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/gnome-terminal.mo (path inode=570755)
    n/usr/lib/locale/de_DE.utf8/LC_CTYPE
    [...]

    The additional difficulty is that inodes might get reused so even
    this isn't reliable.
