Package: zoidberg Version: 0.95-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hi,
in order to fix bug #344030 for users of zoidberg I need to execute
some code in /etc/zoidrc (there unfortunately doesn't seem to be a
non-shell-specific way to deal with the corner case in that bug).
Attached are patches with 2 competing solutions to do so:
1) modularized_zoidrc.patch: this adds looking for a /etc/zoidrc.d
directory and sourcing all scripts in that directory when present
-> IMO this is the preferred solution as:
- it can be used by other packages also (e.g. the user-es, and user-de
configuration packages could use this to configure things for zsh
users)
- doesn't clutter the system unnecessarely (though minimally) when
desktop-profiles isn't installed .
2) with_bugfix_zoidrc.patch: this just adds the shell-snippet needed to fix
bug #344030 directly into /etc/zoidrc
