[Pkg-vsquare-devel] Bug#502442: vde2: Package should provide an rcfile

[Nicolas Pichon]

Package: vde2
Version: 2.2.2-1
Severity: normal

vde2 package provides two commands, "unixcmd" and "vdecmd", which need a       
rcfile to work.

By default, these commands look for the rcfile to the default path
/usr/etc/vde2/vdecmd and /usr/etc/vde2/unixcmd, but these files are
not provided by the package.

One working rcfile can be found in vde2's source tarball (doc/vdecmd), which
seems to work fine.

As there is no documentation in the binary package, nor manual page to
describe how to write this rcfile, I think it should be provided by vde2
package, and vdecmd/unixcmd default rcfile path should be adapted.

Regards,

Nicolas Pichon.
