Missing dependencies for the quantum client

[Gary Kotton]

This is on fedora 17

[root@(none) ~]# quantum net-list
which: no gedit in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin)
which: no kate in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin)
which: no vim in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin)
which: no emacs in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin)

[root@(none) ~]#

After installing vim and gedit the warnings are removed

Is there a fedora bug we should be linking this to?

at a glance, i'm pretty confused as to why the CLI is trying to open a system editor. I'd be curious to understand that better.

I am curious about it too

It's from the library cmd2 that's imported. Ubuntu ships with gedit so it breaks before any of these errors are shown.

    editor = os.environ.get('EDITOR')
    if not editor:
        if sys.platform[:3] == 'win':
            editor = 'notepad'
        else:
            for editor in ['gedit', 'kate', 'vim', 'emacs', 'nano', 'pico']:
                if subprocess.Popen(['which', editor], stdout=subprocess.PIPE).communicate()[0]:
                    break

marking as 'wont fix', as this is not a bug that can be fixed in the main quantum repo, as I understand it.
