[s3ql] making a filesystem on wasabi crashes

[Maurice Volaski]

When I try

sudo mkfs.s3ql --authfile /root/authinfo2 --cachedir /var/tmp/s3ql --plain
s3c://s3.wasabisys.com:443/ftp-bucket


I get

That error comes from the remote server when S3QL tries to check for the
presence of an "s3ql_metadata" object. Maybe you don't have permission?
