used for generating checksums of file contents and therefore needs to be
available and executable on the local and/or remote hosts. That way, no files

+* Known issues and reporting bugs
+** Known issue with completing-multiple-read
+At the moment, there is a problem in Emacs 28.1 and perhaps other versions with
+~completing-read-multiple~ that makes auto-completion fail. When you try to
+specify more than one directory separated by commas (e.g. =/tmp/1,/tmp/2=), an
+error /may/ occur depending on the completing system. In such a case, you
+might just do without auto-completion and ignore that error, dired-duplicates
+will still function properly if you provide valid directories.
+
+** Reporting bugs
+Just open an issue at the homepage of this project in case you hit an error,
+and provide proper steps to reproduce the problem.
