Description Arnaud JEANSEN 2004-01-23 10:04:17 UTC 
When launching erss for the first time :

$ erss
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/arnaud/.erssrc"
Usage: erss [OPTION] ...
Try `erss -h` for more information

It seems erss needs some config options, I tried to fake it with a blank file but it didn't do the trick

Where can I get this file ?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.launch erss
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
program refuses to start

Expected Results:  
program running

update to erss-0.0.2.20040124 and it'll install a sample erssrc file to the docs folder
Comment 2 Arnaud JEANSEN 2004-01-25 03:15:16 UTC 
The 20040124 ebuild version still doesn't install the .erssrc file for me :

arnaud@nono arnaud $ genlop erss
 * net-news/erss
 
     Fri Jan 23 18:34:12 2004 --> net-news/erss-0.0.2.20040117
     Sun Jan 25 12:12:32 2004 --> net-news/erss-0.0.2.20040124
 
 merged totally 2 ebuilds.
arnaud@nono arnaud $ erss
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/arnaud/.erssrc"
Usage: erss [OPTION] ...
Try `erss -h` for more information
