The description and name values in the DAT can sometimes have slashes in the value. When RV processes this with single archive settings or auto-directory naming it interprets the slashes as path separators and creates an unwanted sub-directory. Instead, RV should cleanse this value to a proper directory name.
Steps to reproduce:
Place two dats in a single directory in your datroot.
Modify the name value of one of the dats in a text editor to add a forward slash somewhere in the name
Update dats
Notice that the forward slash is properly converted to a dash in the dat name, but this is not used for the single archive path
