Bug#1032051: linphone-cli: configuration file, manual and /usr/share/doc/linphone-cli/README.

[peter at easthope.ca]

Package: linphone-cli
Version: 4.4.21-2
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: peter at easthope.ca

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
     Attempted to use linphone-cli.  Command linphonec.
     
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
   Checked to find ~/.linphonerc .
   
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   ~/.linphonerc is not present before executing linphonec and still not present 
   after executing linphonec.
   
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
   According to man linphonec, ~/.linphonerc should be created at the first 
   execution of linphonec.  In fact there is a ~/.config/linphone/linphonerc.
   Probably created by the graphical version linphone-desktop.
   
   man linphonec and /usr/share/doc/linphone-cli/README should be 
   consistent with reality.  Ie. should state that linphone-cli doesn't create 
   the configuration but it can be created with the desktop version.
   Then the configuration can be invoked using the -c parameter. 
   linphonec -c ~/.config/linphone/linphonerc
