Yes, I am aware of it, but the point is that a combination like joe selected as the alternative for editor, and /etc/jupp/jupprc for editorrc (or the other way around) won't work. >>Apparently, at the moment, jupp uses only one alternative for >>/etc/jupp/editorrc.

According to the changelog entry for joe 3.5-1, sadly not: * Stop shipping fixed /etc/joe/editorrc and instead add all our versions as alternatives to it. Unfortunately it doesn't work as a slave alternative to the main editor alternative, but this is as close as it can get, closes: #269334.

But the name must still be editorrc… (which, by the way, could be a slave to editor, couldn’t it?) I think using /etc/joe/editorrc makes most sense – as editorrc is only used by editor, which can only point to one of either joe or jupp at the same time. Will try if that works. bye, //mirabilos -- FWIW, I'm quite impressed with mksh interactively. I thought it was much *much* more bare bones. But it turns out it beats the living hell out of ksh93 in that respect. I'd even consider it for my daily use if I hadn't wasted half my life on my zsh setup. :-) -- Frank Terbeck in #!/bin/mksh -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

There seems to be no point of jupp sharing the editorrc alternative with joe, especially considering that neither program is compatible with the shipped rc files of the other anymore. Apparently, at the moment, jupp uses only one alternative for /etc/jupp/editorrc. Do you plan to include the rc files from joe-jupp as alternatives as well? If so, the correct fix is to use an alternative name different from the one used by joe. If not, you don't need to use the alternatives system for /etc/jupp/editorrc at all, and can symlink the file to /etc/jupp/jupprc unconditionally. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Oh, fun. Will have a look at it, thanks for noticing,
if you have an idea please do tell.
A quick one would be to make them not co-installable
(since /etc/joe/{syntax,charmaps} would overlap)...
this I'd like to avoid since I split the joe-parts
off into joe-jupp for that reason...

Bug#636147: jupp: removes /etc/joe/editorrc, breaking joe
Package: jupp
Version: 3.1.17-2
Severity: serious
Justification: wheezy RC policy §3
Jupp hijacks the editorrc alternative from joe, moving it from
/etc/joe/editorrc to /etc/jupp/editorrc. This breaks joe if it is set
as the default system editor:
# dpkg-query -W joe
joe 3.7-2
# ls -F /etc/joe/
editorrc@ ftyperc jicerc.ru jmacsrc joerc jpicorc jstarrc rjoerc
# apt-get install -qq --trivial-only jupp
Selecting previously deselected package jupp.
(Reading database ... 465741 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking jupp (from .../jupp_3.1.17-2_i386.deb) ...

/etc/jupp/editorrc.
