Bug#633524: ksh fc command calls /bin/ed (doesn't exist)

I'm concerned that changing the default is unwise because some user's may be used to it being the default. I always uninstall nano on my machines. At least ed will quit if you type q which was my first guess. Nano keystrokes are all a bit strange and it requires a curses capable terminal. Any idea if something from /etc/alternatives is appropriate. On my system editor points to something that requires X which isn't ideal. ex might be a reasonable choice. Does that exist on a minimal system. Oliver -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
Bug#633524: ksh fc command calls /bin/ed (doesn't exist)
Package: ksh Version: 93s+20080202-1 Description: The real, ATT version of the Korn shell Problem: When issuing the fc command, the program searches for /bin/ed which doesn't exist in recent default debian installs. $ fc ksh: hist[1]: /bin/ed: not found [No such file or directory] $ Possible fix: /bin/nano come's installed by default now, pointing it there should work. To get around the default behaviour, you can also set the FCEDIT or HISTEDIT environment variables. I am using Debian Squeeze, kernel 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP and libc6 (2.11.2-10) . -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
