Package: avida-qt-viewer Version: 2.0b7-3 Severity: normal The Simple Setup option is broken in Debian when creating a new world, failing due to a badly created world file that looks in the wrong place for inst_set and events.cfg because their location is not able to be specified. Advanced setup works properly.
The strace output shows this: access("/home/rschultz/avida2", F_OK) = 0 lstat64("/home/rschultz/avida2", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=48, ...}) = 0 access("/home/rschultz/avida2", R_OK) = 0 access("/home/rschultz/avida2", W_OK) = 0 ** access("/home/rschultz/avida2/inst_set.default", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) access("/usr/share/avida/organism.default", F_OK) = 0 access("/usr/share/avida/organism.default", R_OK) = 0 ** access("/home/rschultz/avida2/events.cfg", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) access("/usr/share/avida/environment.cfg", F_OK) = 0 access("/usr/share/avida/environment.cfg", R_OK) = 0 chdir("/home/rschultz/avida2") = 0 ** Starred lines are where the error occurs. It looks in the specified work directory, where no files have been made yet. This will terminate the simple setup with an error. Possible fix strategy: add events.cfg and inst_set selection options to the simple setup UI, or disable simple setup altogether. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-ck3 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages avida-qt-viewer depends on: ii avida-base 2.0b7-3 Auto-adaptive genetic system for A ii libc6 2.3.5-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:4.0.1-4 GCC support library ii libqt3c102-mt 3:3.3.4-3 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v pi libstdc++5 1:3.3.6-7 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-5 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-5 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii xlibs 6.8.2.dfsg.1-5 X Window System client libraries m avida-qt-viewer recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- Ryan Schultz -> The meek shall indeed inherit the Earth -- the rest of us will take to the stars.
