fpart is never forked #9

This is my first time trying to use parsyncfp so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but this is what I'm seeing:

INFO: Forking fpart.  Check [/home/bp/.parsyncfp/fpcache/fpart.log.00.18.05_2018-03-30] for errors if it hangs.
sh: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
cat: /home/bp/.parsyncfp/fpcache/FP_PIDFILE00.18.05_2018-03-30: No such file or directory
INFO: Waiting for fpart to be forked..
INFO: Waiting for fpart to be forked..
INFO: Waiting for fpart to be forked..
INFO: Waiting for fpart to be forked..

I simply ran ~/parsyncfp . host:/somedir on an Ubuntu 16.04 system, and fpart is installed via the standard apt package.

Any ideas?

I simply ran ~/parsyncfp . home:/somedir Thanks for trying parsyncfp!

That's a little odd.

if you ran 

./parsyncfp . /user@remotehost:/path/to/target[1]/

it should work or at least give you better errors.

do you have fpart installed? Is it on your PATH? Actually, parsyncfp should detect that and issue:

FATAL: There's no 'fpart' executable on your PATH. Did you install it?

does it dump a help page?

That's what I've got right now..

Any ideas?
