💅 FORBIDDEN_WORDS.CO(5) — the libreport manual, bestie edition 🎀

okay so this is a page from the LIBREPORT MANUAL, and it's literally about a config file called forbidden_words.conf. yes it's gossip-worthy. let's go ✨

🦋 NAME 🦋

forbidden_words.conf — the configuration file for libreport. that's it. that's the name. she's simple, she's iconic 💖

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so basically, this config file is the one that says which words get highlighted in the User Interface while you're in the middle of reporting a problem 💅 like, the whole point is to warn a user and get their attention before they publish security sensitive data. it's giving "bestie, are you SURE you want to paste that" energy, and honestly? we stan 🫶

the configuration format is literally one line per forbidden word. that's the whole vibe. no fancy syntax, no nesting, just vibes and one word per line ✨

and here's the cute part: users can bring their own file with their own list of forbidden words, and that list gets appended to the list of forbidden words loaded from /etc/libreport/forbidden_words.conf 👑 (so the system list stays, your list gets added on top — nobody's getting replaced fr fr)

🍓 EXAMPLES 🍓

💜 System configuration:

/etc/libreport/forbidden_words.conf

password
login
mastercard

💜 User configuration:

$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/abrt/settings/forbidden_words.conf

usersecretpassword
ngl that second one is sending me 😭 but it's in the manual so it stays. periodt.
