[00:58] <karora> chilts: I'm trying to use the latest cil from Debian Unstable.
[00:59] <chilts> righto
[00:59] <karora> When I add an issue or edit an issue the stuff I type into my editor does not seem to end up in the issue :-(
[00:59] <chilts> hmm
[01:00] <chilts> so after cil add, does it complain, create the file (with nothing in it) or create the file with something (but not the right thing) in it?
[01:01] <chilts> which version? v0.07?
[01:01] <karora> The issue is created, but there's no description.
[01:02] <karora> It just says "Description ..." at the bottom of it.
[01:02] <karora> Yeah, this is 0.07.00
[01:02] <karora> From Debian.
[01:02] <chilts> so you had deleted that line and put your own description there?
[01:03] <karora> No, not yet.
[01:03] <chilts> then the description was saved as 'Description ...'
[01:03] <chilts> I should change that placeholder text to 'Description (change me) ...'
[01:03] <karora> When I went "cil add blah blah blah blah" an editor came up with an empty document, so I typed my description into that.
[01:03] <chilts> it doesn't do anything with the blah blah blah
[01:04] <karora> Was that editor supposed to be displaying the whole issue?
[01:04] <karora> What's your normal workflow for creating an issue?
[01:04] <chilts> so 'cil add' doesn't take anything on the command line
[01:05] <karora> The "blah blah blah" is now the summary for the issue, but other than "vi issues/whatever" I can't
[01:05] <karora> OK.
[01:05] <karora> That's not what the man page says.
[01:05] <chilts> I usually go "cil add --commit"
[01:05] <chilts> the type in the title and the description
[01:05] <chilts> (sorry title=summary)
[01:07] <chilts> not sure I know where that is, maybe that's been added by someone else for Debian
[01:07]  * chilts will check
[01:08] <chilts> what does the line of the manpage say, and I'll grep for it?
[01:08] <karora> OK.The man page was probably something fmarier did.
[01:08] <karora>        add [--mine] [summary]
[01:08] <karora>            Adds an issues after you have edited the input.  Text passed after 'add' will be used as the bug summary line.
[01:08] <chilts> yeah, do a 'cil --help' and you can see the add command takes nothing afterwards
[01:10] <karora> I noticed that.
[01:10] <chilts> karora: as it turns out, I no longer maintain cil (really) and asked a guy if he wanted to take over development (though I heard nothing back from him after that)
[01:10] <chilts> so yeah, I don't really use it anymore :)
[01:10] <chilts> sometimes I think I should
[01:10] <karora> And I thought "Surely I can pass in an issue title on the command line", so I checked the man page :-)
[01:10] <karora> Heh.
[01:10] <chilts> yeah, that would probably be a good idea
[01:10] <karora> OK.
[01:11] <chilts> lols ... in the code, it _does_ do the summary from the command lien :)
[01:11] <karora> I was just starting to track issues for a new project and it seemed to me like it would be a good way to deal with "confirmed issues that we know need fixing"
[01:11] <chilts> heh, I never knew
[01:11] <karora> Yeah.
[01:11] <karora> That bit actually worked.
[01:11] <chilts> seems to work with my version here
[01:12] <karora> But then it threw up this empty editor window in front of me.
[01:12] <karora> EDITOR=gvim
[01:12] <chilts> if you say it worked, then an empty editor would mean that it didn't?
[01:13] <karora> No, an empty editor probably means that the temp file the editor was supposed to be editing has a different name, or something like that.
[01:13] <chilts> can you try it with EDITOR=vim and see if that works?
[01:13] <karora> Yeah, OK.
[01:13] <chilts> yeah, you're probably right
[01:13] <chilts> mine works with vim and emacs
[01:14] <karora> Yep.
[01:14] <karora> Works with EDITOR=vim
[01:14] <chilts> cool
[01:14] <chilts> not sure about gvim then
[01:14] <chilts> sorry
[01:14] <karora> So that's an acceptable workaround for me, and I can file a bug against the Debian package :-)
[01:15] <karora> Which $SOMEONE can push to the upstream...
[01:15] <karora> And the normal service of this channel can be returned to witnessing the passing of the days.
[01:15] <karora> afternoon
[01:16] <chilts> hehehe
[01:16] <chilts> afternoon
[01:18] <karora> Amusingly the --commit option is also *not* documented in the manpage.
[01:19] <karora> or the --help :-)
[10:28] <Bacta> Hai

[21:53] <snail> is there something special about https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+package/amaya ? it doesn't seem to be in the archives for installation...
[21:53] <ajmitch> it's jaunty?
[21:53] <ajmitch> which is now end-of-life
[21:56] <ajmitch> it was removed from debian & subsequently ubuntu due to numerous bugs & security issues
[22:09] <snail> oh, ok, thanks
