Bug#635766: buffycli: creates an empty .buffy and fails to parse it on the second run

2011-07-28 Thread Penny Leach 
reassign 635766 libbuffy
retitle 635766 libbuffy should not write empty config files or fail to load them
thanks

Just talked with Enrico about this and the problem is only because buffy
creates a config file including the window size on every quit.  The proper
solution is to change libbuffy to handle empty files (which is a perfectly
reasonable state) and not write them out in any case.

Cheers,
Penny

Bug#635766: buffycli: creates an empty .buffy and fails to parse it on the second run

2011-07-28 Thread Philipp Kern 
Package: buffycli
Version: 0.5-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I tried buffycli on wheezy and I got an empty ~/.buffy after the first
run.  It seems that the normal buffy expects an ini-style file with
"[app buffy]" and some window parameters in there.  With the empty
~/.buffy running buffycli will just result in exit code 2.

If I start the proper buffy, I get the ini-style file, and it just works
for buffycli.

Kind regards
Philipp Kern
