Replying to [comment:3 starlight]:
> is #28500 the fix for this?
yes, that's one part, the other other is in the Debian package
https://salsa.debian.org/juxor-
guest/sbws/commit/f294a98ef544014f64df14dd73bf4a4bb293daf2
would it not make more sense for the system to fail hard on a non-existent
configuration file in order to force proper corrective action?
that's what i thought, but:
1. in the Debian package is better to don't provide a default
/etc/sbws/sbws.ini, so that it doesn't not get overwritten on updates if
the operator modifies the file
2. in the Debian package cron should call sbws with /etc/sbws/sbws.ini,
but it won't exist by default and fail
i could add an environment variable to set the default user config and
then the debian package could use it in the cron, instead of using the
config file, but seemed simpler like this.
