This bug occurs on Debian 4.0 as well, but not on Ubuntu 8.04.

[Chris Ortner (c-ortner)]

anydbm.error seems not to be known on different systems. On Debian 4.0 the exception raised in this case ist:
DBInvalidArgError: (22, 'Invalid argument -- ./data/insult_insults: unsupported hash version: 9')
data/insult_insults was created on Ubuntu 8.04 with the shelve module of Python 2.5.2, which seems to create a file with a bsddb format version, which does not work on Debian 4.0 and Mac OS 10.5.

Normally the resource files don't get shipped with P1tr, but for the insult plugin this is necessary.

[Michael Otteneder (m-otteneder)]

Looks like you have to import anydbm in order to use anydbm.error. But I don't think that it can be thrown by shelve.open()

[Chris Ortner (c-ortner)]

Will be fixed by not delivering insults with P1tr. On first P1tr run, if no insults exist in data/insult_insults, P1tr imports a list of insults from http://server.austriangeekforce.net/insults.txt.

Fixed in revision 110.
