Bug 32314 - daphne: ~/.dainput.ini not resolvable
Bug#: 32314 Product:  Gentoo Linux Version: unspecified Platform: x86
OS/Version: Linux Status: RESOLVED Severity: major Priority: P2
Resolution: FIXED Assigned To: games@gentoo.org Reported By: hakan@gurkensalat.com
Component: Games

Summary: daphne: ~/.dainput.ini not resolvable
Keywords:  
Status Whiteboard: 
Opened: 2003-10-30 01:25 0000
Description:   Opened: 2003-10-30 01:25 0000
The default ebuild replaces the path to the key configuration file
(dainput.ini)
with ~/.dainput.ini . ~ being a shell construct, daphne can't resolve this
name.
The sed construct in the ebuild should be replaced with a call to
getenv("HOME")
and path concatenation.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. make sure that ~/.dapinput.ini exists:
arcade@wombat arcade $ ls ~/.dapinput.ini
/home/arcade/.dapinput.ini

2. run daphne with strace
arcade@wombat arcade $ strace -eopen -oopen.log /usr/games/bin/daphne ......

3. Verify that ~/.dapinput.ini can't be opened
arcade@wombat arcade $ grep dapinput.ini open.log
...
open("~/.dapinput.ini", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
...


Actual Results:  
Daphne can't read its configuration file, continuing work with the compiled-in
default key settings.

Expected Results:  
The key configuration should have been opened and read.

Reason for marking this a major problem:
I have daphne in my keyboardless arcade box. Without the ability to dynamically
remap the key codes, I have to recompile my special version for my specific
button settings.
