Bug Description

Origami version : 0.6.9.0ubuntu1
Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty, 32 bit.

The name option for Origami doesn't seem to work at all, command used was (see details in pastebin):
sudo origami name [-t 45104-u starcraft.man]

Several different permutations without the brackets, with only -u or -t were also tried. All failed to update the client.cfg files. No error message actually appears however, that is the weird part. It in fact says from all accounts everything went fine. I know it failed because both the origami status command and the client.cfg text files state the old team and username.

Orignally, I installed locally having set my username, team and passkey from the command to install. Later, when I checked on it, I found the username and pass correct but the team was listed as 0 (I typed the command correct). That's when I tried to update with the name command and it failed as above. I'm uncertain if it was set to the right team at the outset (in the client.cfg file) after the install, but it wasn't when I checked just a short while later. Ultimately, I resorted to editing my client.cfg files manually, less than ideal for the average user (though not particularly difficult).

The following is a pastebin to the convo I had with Zelut. It details all the diagnoses we went through:

We confirmed it's a bug on both our machines. I don't think my hardware's relevant, if any further info is needed I'm available either on the Ubuntu forums under this username or in the IRC freenode channels as starcraft.

Yes, the issue here is that the wiki page was inaccurate on how to install origami. The wiki has since been updated, and now shows the correct command to install. You must put spaces between the options, and between the brackets like such:
sudo origami name [ -t 45104 -u bobsmith ]
