| Bug Details | |
| Pondus 0.5.2 creates a lock file in ~/.pondus/ when started, this is all good and well, but if the ~/.pondus/ directory does not exist pondus will fail with the following traceback:
"Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/pondus", line 24, in <module> initialize.initialize() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pondus/core/initialize.py", line 98, in initialize parameters.filelock = FileLock() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pondus/core/filelock.py", line 36, in __init__ self.first_lock() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pondus/core/filelock.py", line 42, in first_lock self.lock() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pondus/core/filelock.py", line 56, in lock lockfile = open(self.lockfilename, 'w') IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/foolish/.pondus/user_data.xml.lck' " Manually creating ~/.pondus solves this, so suggested solution is for the pondus executable to check if the user configuration directory exists, and if not, create it.
