i would like to vote to re-open this bug (or to start a new one), on the basis of UI/UX. Many Linux newbies do not know that /usr/share/doc/moc/README even exists. Yes, they will discover it later, but that page is "remote" to the experience (on the command-line itself). Even if you goes to that page, the heads-up is easy to miss because the warning about the alternative executable name is not prominently displayed at the top, but instead is buried a page down.
I'd like to suggest/request that for the easiest/friendliest end-user experience (especially newbies to Linux): 1) the moc executable be re-instated as "moc", not "mocp", so that it matches the package-name (which is most often standard for Debian package naming) OR (less desireable): 2) the package be renamed to "mocp" to match the executable name OR (at least...) 3) that the error message be changed or amended so that it redirects the user to 'mocp' instead of giving a useless / unfriendly error message. Thank you. -JS -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1412002 Title: can't start moc in Ubuntu 14.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/moc/+bug/1412002/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
