[Bug 884177] Re: fancontrol cannot read its own configuration file
Config files don't contain messages, they configure fancontrol to work. Is the man page not sufficient? I suppose the package could have a debconf question that prompts you to run pwmconfig when you install it... ** Summary changed: - fancontrol cannot read its own configuration file + fancontrol should have debconf prompt to run pwmconfig ** Changed in: lm-sensors (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Triaged ** Description changed: - - $ fancontrol - Loading configuration from /etc/fancontrol ... - Error: Can't read configuration file - - $ lsb_release -rd - Description: Ubuntu 11.10 - Release: 11.10 - - ~$ apt-cache policy fancontrol - fancontrol: - Installed: 1:3.3.0-4ubuntu1 - Candidate: 1:3.3.0-4ubuntu1 - Version table: - *** 1:3.3.0-4ubuntu1 0 - 500 http://fi.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe i386 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + The fancontrol package needs to be cofigured before it works.

[Bug 884177] Re: fancontrol cannot read its own configuration file
Can there be a config file included in the default install that contains such a message?
