HUGE PLESK 9.0 BUG : pre9-backup-convert kills web_users

I actually have found a BIG PLESK 9.0 bug : When migrating from an existing Plesk 8 installation using the procedure from http://kb.odin.com/en/5864, the domains which have web_users get the content of EVERY web_user's directory filled with the same files from ONE single web_user in the bunch : thus all web users directories get populated with the very same files.

I have noticed this while migrating a server which had a backup file weighting 200 GB (web_users directories where full of videos). After having processed the Plesk 8.2 backup file with pre9-backup-convert (without any errors reported, conversion and import into PLESK ended fine), my /var/lib/psa/dumps/ directory receiving the converted files only weighted 25 GB !!!

This has also occured on another PLESK 9.0 web server while processing a smaller (14 Gb) backup file.

Both plesk 9.0 servers are hosted on CentOS 5.2 under virtuozzo 4
