Package: soundmodem Version: 0.15-2 Severity: normal
'soundmodemconfig' is a tool provided in the 'soundmodem' package used to set up the soundmodem daemon. When you first use the program, the file /etc/ax25/soundmodem.conf doesn't exist, so the program outputs errors like: I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/etc/ax25/soundmodem.conf" I/O error : No such fiile or directory Soundmodemconfig does not create that file, so you have to do it by hand (mkdir /etc/ax25 ; touch /etc/ax25/soundmodem.conf ). Otherwise you won't be able to store the config. This bug was first reported in Ubuntu (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/soundmodem/+bug/770011). >From comment #1 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/soundmodem/+bug/770011/comments/1) there: > So, running soundmodemconfig is a MUST. But even when running > soundmodemconfig, the /etc/ax25/soundmodem.conf won't be created until the > directory /etc/ax25 exists. > If you install the ax25 packages, the directory will be created, and then you > will be able to configure soundmodem. > However, the ax25 packages are not dependencies, so this is totally a bug. > Since this package is imported from Debian, you should file a bug report on > Debian and link it here. > If I'm not wrong (hope I'm not!) you should ask the maintainer to add the > /etc/ax25/soundmodem.conf to the package conffiles, > so /etc/ax25 is created automatically if needed during package installation. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers natty-updates APT policy: (500, 'natty-updates'), (500, 'natty-security'), (500, 'natty-proposed'), (500, 'natty-backports'), (500, 'natty') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.38-8-generic-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=es_ES.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=es_ES.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages soundmodem depends on: ii libasound2 1.0.24.1-0ubuntu5 shared library for ALSA applicatio ii libatk1.0-0 2.0.0-0ubuntu1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libaudiofile0 0.2.6-8ubuntu1 Open-source version of SGI's audio ii libc6 2.13-0ubuntu13 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.23.3-0ubuntu1 GDK Pixbuf library ii libglib2.0-0 2.28.6-0ubuntu1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.4-0ubuntu2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libhamlib2 1.2.13-1 Run-time library to control radio ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.4-0ubuntu1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-2 GNOME XML library soundmodem recommends no packages. soundmodem suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
