Package: sntop
Version: 1.4.3-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
I just found out there is something like sntop (so far only knew iftop)
and immediately believe that the package has a bug ;)
Just installing sntop without further configuration results in this
message
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~>sntop
sntop: error, cannot open systen or user conf file
Here's the corresponding strace output.
open("/home/bernd/.sntoprc", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/usr/etc/sntoprc", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
However, sntoprc is installed in /etc. So I checked the debian-source
and the rules script gives this option "--sysconfdir=\$${prefix}/etc". I
really think "\$${prefix}" should be removed.
