Package: get-iplayer Version: 2.15-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu karmic ubuntu-patch
As described, https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/419226 , the "get-iplayer -u" option will attempt an in-place upgrade directly from upstream. In normal usage, this command will fail as the application isn't normally run with root privileges. The attached patch provides a basic configuration file that instructs get_iplayer to display a saner, apt based upgrade path. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers karmic-updates APT policy: (500, 'karmic-updates'), (500, 'karmic-security'), (500, 'karmic-backports'), (500, 'karmic') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-5-generic (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
