Package: moreutils
Version: 0.14
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
According to Debian Policy ยง11.4:
> every program that launches an editor or pager must use the EDITOR or
> PAGER environment variable to determine the editor or pager the user
> wishes to use. If these variables are not set, the programs
> /usr/bin/editor and /usr/bin/pager should be used, respectively.
However, vipe and vidir as shipped default to vi, regardless of the
user's choice of editor.
A patch is attached.

Description:
moreutils - additional unix utilities
Closes: 361123 378122 378623
Changes:
moreutils (0.15) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Remove notes about potential tools from README, moved to wiki.
* vidir: Don't abort if it sees an empty or all-whitespace line.
* vidir: If just a filename is removed and the number is left,
treat this the same as removing the whole line, and delete the file,
instead of trying to rename the file to "".
* vidir: Remove the periods after the item numbers.
* vidir: Man page improvements. Closes: #378122
* combine: Man page improvements, to clarify even more that order does
matter and that the operations are not commutative. Closes: #361123
* combine: The behavior of "or" was fairly strange if lines were repeated in
a file. Changed behavior to just print all lines from both files, even
if this means printing dups. Not sure I like this behavior either, but
it's consistent with the very useful behaviors of "and" and "not".
* vidir, vipe: Use /usr/bin/editor if it's present, and EDITOR and VISUAL
arn't set, to comply with Debian policy. For portability, fall back to vi
if there's no /usr/bin/editor. Closes: #378623
