Bug#1095173: visidata: vd wrapper stopped working

[Markus Koller]

Package: visidata
Version: 3.0.2-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

The wrapper in /usr/bin/vd stopped working and now fails
with this error:

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/bin/vd", line 6, in <module>
      visidata.main.vd_cli()
      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'vd_cli'

This bug was probably introduced with the recent 3.0.2-1 update.
I couldn't find any upstream issues so I assume it's a packaging problem.

The file /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/visidata/main.py
does have a 'vd_cli' method, so I'm not sure what's going on.

Also /usr/bin/visidata still works fine, but I figured I'd
set the severity to Important because I assume many users
only call 'vd' and may not be aware of the alternative 'visidata'
command. Which also makes me wonder if 'vd' could/should just
be a symlink to 'visidata' :)

Thanks and greetings,
Markus
