Package: gtablix Version: 0.9.13-1-1 Severity: normal I just tested gtablix, and ran into an unexpected problem. After filling in classes, teachers, rooms, etc, I got to the point where the schedule calculation should start. I tried to start the process, but tablix2 died immediately. There was no information in the GUI about what went wrong. Trying to figure out what went on, I checked the output on stdout, and discovered lines like this:
libpvm [pid13029] /tmp/pvmd.10001: No such file or directory This made me suspect there was a need to have the pvmd program running. Starting it manually on the side got the scheduling going, and I was able to get a time table for the test data. I suggest detecting this problem and report it in the GUI. If possible, it would be great if gtablix would start pvmd if needed, to avoid confusing the user with what I would consider an implementation detail. :) -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages gtablix depends on: ii file 4.17-5etch2 Determines file type using "magic" ii libglib-perl 1:1.140-1 Perl interface to the GLib and GOb ii libgtk2-gladexml-perl 1.006-1 Perl interface to use user interfa ii libgtk2-perl 1:1.140-1 Perl interface to the 2.x series o ii liblocale-gettext-perl 1.05-1 Using libc functions for internati ii libxml-libxml-common-perl 0.13-5 Perl module for common routines & ii libxml-libxml-perl 1.59-2 Perl module for using the GNOME li ii libxml-namespacesupport-perl 1.09-3 Perl module for supporting simple ii libxml-sax-perl 0.12-5 Perl module for using and building ii perl 5.8.8-7 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages gtablix recommends: ii tablix2 0.3.3-1 Kernel for solving general timetab -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
