Package: xdebconfigurator
Version: 1.24
Severity: important
When running xdebconfigurator while discover v2 is installed, it is
unable to get any info out of discover. This is printed when I try:
# xdebconfigurator
Detected Xorg server
discover: Bus not found.
Use of uninitialized value in string eq at /usr/sbin/xdebconfigurator line 882.
/usr/sbin/kudzu NOT found!
[...]
The reason is that discover is called like this:
discover --format="%V %M:%D:%S\n" video
The video argument only work with discover1. An example no how to
handle both discover1 and discover can be found it
/var/lib/dpkg/info/xserver-xorg.config. The idea is to detect which
version is available, and then call it like this:
discover --data-path=xfree86/server/device/driver \
--data-version=${SOURCE_VERSION%-*} display
The video card database in discover v2 is better then the one in
discover1, so I recommend using version 2.
