Actually, I think, upstream maintainer's hat on, that looking for the system
wide database within /var/lib/ is not that straight forward if it has to be
done upstream. It depends on how package maintainers did name the package and
thus the directory within /var/lib. The upstream software name is "MPD_sima"
which is renamed "mpd-sima" in debian.
Then I believe, as package maintainer now, it is probably better to duplicate
simadb_cli wrapper used in debian package.
We'll have one system wide wrapper looking for /var/lib/mpd-sima/sima.db and
the second looking in the regular user directory:
"${XDG_DATA_HOME}/mpd_sima/sima.db"
I guess I would set "simadb_cli_sw" to look for system wide database and leave
"simadb_cli" as is.
In the mean time you can use a shell alias:
alias simadb_cli="simadb_cli --dbfile=/var/lib/mpd-sima/sima.db"
Thanks for your report Nicolas
Cheers,
Geoff
