Hm. Further investigation shows that it works on my development system, but byobu-config doesn't show up on my 2-qa system. It turns out that conary tags /usr/bin/byobu-config as :devel for some reason. This should be fixed now (thanks António). In any case, if you want to try out Byobu, you might want to back up your existing .screenrc and move it out of the way and then run 'byobu-janitor' to actually see the benefits of byobu. Enjoy. _______________________________________________ Foresight-devel mailing list Foresight-devel@lists.rpath.org http://lists.rpath.org/mailman/listinfo/foresight-devel
