The pain

$ sudo -u sympa /opt/pkg/bin/perl /opt/pkg/sympa/bin/sympa.pl --help Line 38, unknown field: bounce_path in sympa.conf No web archives directory: /opt/pkg/arc MHonArc is not installed or /usr/bin/mhonarc is not executable. Language::SetLang(), missing locale parameter Missing Return-Path in mail::smtpto() Missing directory '/opt/pkg/bounce' (defined by 'bounce_path' parameter) Configuration file /opt/pkg/etc/sympa.conf has errors.
What this error message doesn't bother saying is that it has silently
sourced wwsympa.conf as well as sympa.conf, and that the
errors come from that file. And no, there is no explicit sourcing
of wwsympa.conf in sympa.conf.
God, I hate this software.
