Package: skippy
Version: 0.5.0-3
Severity: minor
Speculatively installed skippy from weekly news comment.
Haven't yet seen it work, but was waylaid but this output:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ >skippy
WARNING: $HOME not set, not loading config.
$HOME is certainly set and in the environment, and skippy is not setuid.
Further, an ltrace shows the return value of getenv("HOME") as
"/home/jrodman", so I'm fairly certain this message is incorrect.
Also, I believe this is not accurate in terms of its statement of
intent, since the strace shows:
open("/home/jrodman/.skippyrc", O_RDONLY) = 4
fstat64(4, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1107, ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) =
0xb7ffe000
fstat64(4, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1107, ...}) = 0
_llseek(4, 0, [0], SEEK_SET) = 0
read(4, "# This is the Default Debian ski"..., 1107) = 1107
_llseek(4, 1107, [1107], SEEK_SET) = 0
close(4) = 0
munmap(0xb7ffe000, 4096) = 0
write(2, "WARNING: $HOME not set, not load"..., 44) = 44
So this message is written after it actually loads the file.
looking at the source logic, this appears to be a bug in
11_find_skippyrc_in_etc.patch
The logic, with patch applied, is:
1) Check for HOME
If HOME set, try to load config from $HOME/.skipopyrc
2) If config is not yet successfully loaded try to load config from
/etc/X11/skippy/skippyrc
3) Otherwise, if config WAS successfully loaded report an error about
$HOME dir
So the error message about $HOME will only appear if the configuration was
actually successfully loaded out of $HOME.
Traditionally unix programs don't tend to actively complain about missing
config files, so maybe you should just remove the error. Ideally I think
it would be a verbose form of output, but not by default.
