Description David Grant 2005-11-21 10:48:03 UTC

I emerged wordpress-1.5.2, then ran the webapp-config line as suggested.

Fatal error: Please emerge wordpess-1.5.2

It did that because I spelled wordpress as wordpess. It took me a while to
notice this typo. Shouldn't there be a better error message than that? Can
webapp-config figure out that there is no package called wordpess?

This would be better:

"Fatal error: There is no such package wordpess-1.5.2"

I clarified the error message as given below. This will then be part of
webapp-config-1.51.

'There is no web application called "wordpess-1.5.2" installed. Please emerge it
before trying to install it with webapp-config.'
