Hi,

I just ran into a funny problem regarding update-alternatives
and editorrc: if joe is installed, it wants /etc/joe/editorrc
whereas jupp reads /etc/jupp/editorrc (I’ll use joe’s for now
and symlink to it but that will break when joe was installed,
jupp is selected and joe is then removed… probably, that is –
not RC severity but to be fixed before the release – I think,
/etc/joe will simply still exist and dpkg not rmdir.)

Can we agree to move the 'editorrc' alternative to /etc and
symlink to that from /etc/joe/editorrc and /etc/jupp/editorrc
both? Can we also prod the update-alternatives people to make
editorrc a slave to editor, since that’s really the only way?
(What didn’t work? You only wrote it didn’t work in joe-3.5’s
changelog entry.)

Thanks,
//mirabilos
