Hi,
The current devotee package is far too wedded to the Debian way
of doing things to be useful as a package. It is far too inglexible,
and things have ben h a r d c o d e d.
I have a devotee-ng in a rewrite now, that is far more modular,

Would it be possible to add a pointer to the frequently encountered
problems to the devotee error reply? This would most likely reduce the
burden on the secretary during the voting period and allow people to
solve the problems at their end faster.

Hi all,
at worse, there may be alternatives, like selectricity (.org), which was also
