JEFFERSON(1)

πŸ“¦ version 0.4.1+git.20220705, in opensuse-leap 16.0

πŸ‘‘ JEFFERSON(1)

okay so real talk β€” this whole thing lives in User Commands, section 1 of the manual, and it's filed under the big fancy title JEFFERSON(1). bestie. you are not ready for what's inside. πŸ’€


✨ NAME ✨

jefferson β€” manual page for jefferson 0.4.1+git.20220705

that's it. that's the name section. she's short, she's sweet, she's giving minimal-effort icon behavior. πŸŽ€


πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

okay so here's the thing, and I need you to breathe while I say it: the entire DESCRIPTION section of this manual page is a Python traceback. not a description of the tool. not a list of options. a traceback. she crashed on the way to the manpage and we all just… kept the receipt. 😭

like, somebody ran the manpage generator and it did not pass the vibe check. what you get is literally this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
           File
           "/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/jefferson-0.4.1+git.20220705-build/BUILDROOT//usr/bin/jefferson",
           line 10, in <module>

           import lzo

    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'lzo'

let me walk you through the drama because it's honestly iconic:

  • Traceback (most recent call last): β€” the classic "here's how I fell" opening line 🫢
  • the File line points at /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/jefferson-0.4.1+git.20220705-build/BUILDROOT//usr/bin/jefferson β€” yes, that's a full rpmbuild build path, yes there's a double slash in BUILDROOT//usr/bin/jefferson, no we are not fixing it, it's part of the lore now 🌸
  • line 10, in <module> β€” line ten, bestie. ten. it barely started.
  • import lzo β€” the line that started it all πŸ’”
  • ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'lzo' β€” and that's the whole story. the module lzo is not there. it said "no module named 'lzo'" and honestly? same energy as me looking in the fridge and finding nothing.
⚠️ heads up: this DESCRIPTION is the raw traceback, so don't go looking for options, arguments, exit statuses, files, environment variables, bugs, authors, copyright or SEE ALSO in here β€” this page genuinely doesn't have any. what you see is what you get, and what you get is a crash. no cap. πŸ’€

the way this manpage is entirely an error message and still got published to a whole section titled User Commands… main character energy, honestly. πŸ‘‘


anyway, bestie, that's the whole page! this gem is jeffersons version 0.4.1+git.20220705, and it was dated October 2022 β€” so when you see JEFFERSON(1) floating around out there, just remember: she had a build path, she had a dream, and she had no module named lzo. rip to a real one. πŸ•ŠοΈπŸ’–
