Package: beep Version: 1.2.2-15 Severity: minor Hi, my beep man-page has this paragraph:
,---- | As part of a log-watching pipeline | | tail -f /var/log/xferlog | grep 'passwd' | beep -f 1000 -r 5 -s `---- However that does not work until I remove the -f from the tail command (but this is pointless because then you aren't watching the file any longer) or if I remove the grep (which is probably also no solution in most cases). To show that it is no beep problem check that ,---- | tail -f /var/log/xferlog | grep passwd `---- will output something, this won't: ,---- | tail -f /var/log/xferlog | grep passwd | grep passwd `---- So beep will not receive anything (or at least not immediately) This has already been discussed here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-isp/2001/05/msg00003.html regards Thorsten -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.12.2 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages beep depends on: ii debconf 1.4.30.13 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
