Bug#486807: since upgrade urxvtcd does not start anymore

2008-06-18 Thread Patrick Schoenfeld
Package: rxvt-unicode
Version: 9.05-1
Severity: important

Hi,

since I upgraded from Version: 9.02-1+b1 the urxvtcd wrapper does not
start anymore. Instead the following output is issued:

urxvt: cd: unknown or malformed option.
urxvt: /home/schoenfeld: malformed option.
rxvt-unicode (urxvt) v9.02 - released: 2008-01-29

BTW. note that it states it would be 9.02 if launched via urxvtcd. Thats 
strange,
because urxvtcd and rxvt-unicode both state that its version is 9.05, only the
urxvtc binary says it is 9.02. So it seems your package does not install a new
version of this binary.

Best Regards,
Patrick

That is... extremely strange. urxvtc has not gone anywhere (I'm
using it right now, albeit on amd64). You can see for yourself at:
http://packages.debian.org/sid/i386/rxvt-unicode/filelist

Does your output of `dpkg -L rxvt-unicode` match that? Are you maybe
still running the urxvtd shipped with 9.02?

 It now works. However I think that its more then suboptimal if an
 upgrade makes running sessions impossible to use. Isn't there a better
 way to handle the client-server connections between urxvtc and
 urxvtcd?

It would be nice, but I don't know of any sensible way to replace the
running daemon -- if some random user is even running one. It would be
kind of like restarting xdm on every upgrade.

Incompatible upgrades are at least very rare. I agree that they should
not happen in point releases, FWIW.

I could put a message in the postinst reminding people to restart but
(a) relying on being able to print stuff there is bad (b) most users
probably don't care about urxvtd (c) the ones that do are probably aware
of this issue (d) every time I see that message from Iceweasel I roll my
eyes and ask what operating system this is again.

So, I don't know. If you have any ideas I'm open to them.

(Ccing the bug, even though it's closed, for the sake of future travelers)
