Bug#965052: RFP: bitlbee-libpurple -- Missing /var/lib/bitlbee
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: bitlbee-libpurple Version : 3.6-1.1+b2 Upstream Author : * URL or Web page : * License : Description : Missing /var/lib/bitlbee I've not yet configured bitl-bee, just installed it. I ran systemctl to check the status and noticed this error. I doubt this is a serious issue, but wondered whether the install should have created the config directory. ~ [ sc-status bitlbee.service ] 3:50 PM ● bitlbee.service - BitlBee IRC/IM gateway Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/bitlbee.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Tue 2020-07-07 08:45:51 AEST; 1 weeks 1 days ago Main PID: 1174384 (bitlbee) Tasks: 1 (limit: 19021) Memory: 2.2M CGroup: /system.slice/bitlbee.service └─1174384 /usr/sbin/bitlbee -F -n Jul 07 08:45:51 trinity.maslen.id.au systemd[1]: Started BitlBee IRC/IM gateway.

Re: Intent for NMU of python-2.1 packages
Gregor Hoffleit [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: How does that sound ? I think it sounds like an awful lot of work. I still don't really understand why we keep python1.5, but presumably there are some good reasons, and I trust the debian team to have thrashed that out by now. You mentioned emacs, which made me think about xemacs packaging system, and wonder how the python packaging system might work for debian? Probably it doesn't really. Ideally I only want to install python2.1 (or whatever the latest greatest is), but if I did find a need for 1.5 then I would like it to be able to co-exist. It would be nice, if I only have 2.1 installed, for the packaging system to automagically configure python as an alternative for python2. Probably it would be pretty cool if modules could sort out at install time what version they were to compile for, just like some debian lisp packages do for different emacsen. cheers
apt-get install (for source)
I finally worked out what a great feature apt-get install is. I was wondering whether anybody has thought of making an option such as -s to instead download the source files for the named package. -- Binary Bar - Australia's first free access internet bar/cafe/gallery. 243 Brunswick Street, Fitzroy, Melbourne, Australia. 3pm - 1am http://www.binary.net.au/ Running on Debian/GNU Linux
