Devices in particular. Here's an almost-backtrace.


,-----------|
| $ pspp -vv
| pspp: searching for "rc" in path "/home/me/.pspp:/usr/etc/pspp"
| pspp: ...not found
| pspp: searching for "devices" in path "/home/me/.pspp:/usr/etc/pspp"
| pspp: ...not found
| pspp: cannot find output initialization file (use `-vv' to view search
| path)
| pspp: error reading device definition file
| pspp: using default output driver configuration
`-----------|

The devices missing bit is interesting, because it's in /etc/pspp as
it should be, but the program's still searching /usr/etc/pspp.
*shrug*. If I run pspp --config-dir /etc/pspp, everything's fine.

Thoughts?
