Package: autojump Severity: important Version: 22.5.0-2 Hi.
Here is the log from an IRC log from yesterday: [16:55] <rbrito> Hi there. [16:56] <rbrito> Before I file a bug against autojump, I would like to see if other people are seeing the same problem that I am. [16:58] <rbrito> I'm using bash and I followed the instructions included in /usr/share/doc/autojump/README.Debian [16:59] <rbrito> I have also searched a lot with google and it seems that the problem is also present in Ubuntu. [17:00] <rbrito> The issue is that when I use autojump, the database of directories doesn't get updated when I enter new directories. [17:00] <rbrito> Is there anyone else seeing this behavior? [17:02] <rbrito> The only cases where I see new directories getting included in the database of past directories are when I manually force autojump to include a given directory with "j -a ." or if I immediately source the configuration file with: "source /usr/share/autojump/autojump.bash" [17:03] <rbrito> This was noticeable on a new machine, since the database is, of course, empty upon installation... [17:05] <rbrito> But now that I think more about this, I may have seen this issue on my other computers, with the priorities of directories not being updated, but, in this case, the databases were not empty, so I didn't notice right away... [17:57] <annadane> i mean, i'd say just submit the bug report [17:57] <annadane> rbrito [17:57] <rbrito> annadane: Thanks for the recommendation. [17:58] <annadane> it can't hurt [17:58] <rbrito> annadane: do you see the problem also (if you use it?) [17:58] <annadane> i don't use it [17:58] <rbrito> OK, no problems. [17:58] <rbrito> Thanks. The problem is that I have not changed anything in my configuration in years (since, say, I contributed a patch to https://bugs.debian.org/705516 or https://github.com/wting/autojump/commit/2a49b8ca475701a65cfb55324a765faf8eb5265d) and I just move such configuration from machine to machine (my dotfiles are in a git repo), but now I don't see the database of past directories ever get updated.
