Package: sopel
Version: 6.5.0-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
Thank you for creating the sopel package for Debian.
* What led up to the situation?
I installed the package and tried to configure it by using the commands
which were in the README.Debian file.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I ran the following commands as root:
chown sopel /etc/sopel.cfg
sudo -u sopel sopel --config /etc/sopel.cfg --configure-all
* What was the outcome of this action?
Creating a config directory at ~/.sopel...
Please answer the following questions to create your configuration file:
Encountered an error while writing the config file. This shouldn't happen.

* What outcome did you expect instead?
The possibility to configure sopel.
To be able to configure sopel, the command should be:
sudo -u sopel sopel --config /etc/sopel --configure-all
Notice there is no .cfg at the end of the config file.
