Package: apt-listchanges
Followup-For: Bug #425606
I just discovered that apt-listchanges has an environment variable to
set the frontend. Given that, I don't actually need apt-listchanges
to have support for deciding what frontend to use based on $DISPLAY .
I can simply include the following snippet in my .bashrc:
if [ -n "$DISPLAY" ]; then
APT_LISTCHANGES_FRONTEND=browser
else
APT_LISTCHANGES_FRONTEND=pager
fi
export APT_LISTCHANGES_FRONTEND
You might consider including this snippet in README.Debian.
(However, until bug 456454 gets fixed, I can't actually use the
browser frontend.)
