DetailsDescription:
Upon installing osdbattery, pacman outputs incorrect post installation instructions: [timothy@tomothytablet panels]$ sudo pacman -S osdbattery <etc> : Remember to copy /etc/osdbattery/osdbattery.cfg to your home dir : cp /etc/osdbattery/osdbattery.cfg ~/.osdbattery : The /usr/bin/showbatt script can be bound to a key combo to : easily show and hide the monitor These are WRONG, because you should not copy the file osdbattery.cfg to the FILE ~/.osdbattery, you should copy it to the DIRECTORY ~/.osdbattery! Here are the correct instructions: : Remember to copy /etc/osdbattery/osdbattery.cfg to a ".osdbattery" directory in your home dir : mkdir ~/.osdbattery : cp /etc/osdbattery/osdbattery.cfg ~/.osdbattery Steps to reproduce: Install osdbattery and read the post installation message. |
