Package: willie
Version: 5.2.0-1
Severity: important

Hi,

I just tried running willie, but it seems that the "restart" and "stop"
actions of the init script are broken. These run willie --quit, without
passing $DAEMON_ARGS, which cause the following to happen:

        matthijs@login:~$ sudo invoke-rc.d willie restart
        Restarting willie: willieWelcome to Willie!
        I can't seem to find the configuration file, so let's generate it!

        Please answer the following questions to create your configuration file:

        Enter the nickname for your bot [Willie]:

Checking the process tree confirms that it is stuck while running
--quit:

        matthijs@login:~$ ps aux --forest|grep willie
        root     13081  0.0  0.1  52352  4264 pts/20   S+   10:50   0:00  |   
\_ sudo invoke-rc.d willie restart
        root     13082  0.0  0.0   4308  1548 pts/20   S+   10:50   0:00  |     
  \_ /bin/sh /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d willie restart
        root     13099  0.0  0.0   4308  1584 pts/20   S+   10:50   0:00  |     
      \_ /bin/sh /etc/init.d/willie restart
        root     13104  0.0  0.0  39512  2860 pts/20   S+   10:50   0:00  |     
          \_ su -s /bin/sh willie -c willie --quit
        willie   13105  0.0  0.0   4308   692 ?        Ss   10:50   0:00  |     
              \_ sh -c willie --quit
        willie   13106  0.1  0.4  59472 17564 ?        S    10:50   0:00  |     
                  \_ /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/willie --quit

What seems to happen is that since $DAEMON_ARGS isn't passed, willie
looks in ~/.willie for a config, which doesn't exist, so it prompts to
create a new one. More generally, willie needs to know the config file
when running --quit, since the pidfile location can be modified in the
config.

It seems the simplest fix is to just pass $DAEMON_ARGS to willie --quit?
