Feel free (though I see you already did anyway :-).
Anyway, further investigation revealed that the problem had nothing to
do with any actual .dhelp files and everything to do with whether I
had the environment value COLUMNS set -- when I do (either dpkg or
debconf evidently reintroduces it into the minimal environment sudo
sets up), application.rb proceeds to compare its (string) value to the
integer 10:
DEFAULT_CONSOLE_WIDTH = 70
MIN_CONSOLE_WIDTH = 10
[...]
console_width = ENV["COLUMNS"]
@columns =
if console_width.nil?
DEFAULT_CONSOLE_WIDTH
elsif console_width < MIN_CONSOLE_WIDTH # line 342, offending call
console_width
else
console_width - DEFAULT_BODY_INDENT
end
I'm reassigning this bug accordingly.
