Hi Alexei,

Thank you for your bug report. I can't seem to reproduce this. Can you? I just pasted a python file and it worked fine.

Thanks,
Ankur

Hi Ankur.
No. I can not reproduce the bug.
I have tried several times, different scripts.

Hi Alexei,

I'm closing it for the time being. Hopefully it was a one time thing. Please file another if it happens again :)

Thanks again,
Warm regards,
Ankur

Got this when running " qemu-kvm -device ? |fpaste"

No text to send.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/fpaste", line 447, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/fpaste", line 414, in main
    [url, short_url] = paste(text, options)
TypeError: 'bool' object is not iterable

Hi Ankur,

The issue reported by Dan is 100% reproducible, I thought it was the content of the paste that creates the issue (unparseable json), but it's not, it seems to happen only when you do redirects:

]$ qemu-kvm -device ? 2> f.txt
]$ ./fpaste f.txt 
Uploading (5.7KiB)...
http://ur1.ca/e2e7t -> http://paste.fedoraproject.org/14847/13696896

The issue seems to be related to the fact that 'qemu-kvm -device ?' outputs to stderr, because the following command works correctly:

]$ qemu-kvm -device ? 2>&1 | fpaste
Uploading (5.7KiB)...
http://ur1.ca/e2eae -> http://paste.fedoraproject.org/14848/36969007

Yep. I found this too. Ideally fpaste should just exit with "No text to send". Not sure why it crashes. We'll need to look into this.

If you do not have a network connection you will also hit this TypeError exception:

fpaste --sysinfo
Gathering system info..........................Uploading (15.1KiB)...
Error Uploading: [Errno -2] Name or service not known

    [url, short_url] = paste(text, options)
TypeError: 'bool' object is not iterable

I got this in F19 x86_64 when attempting to fpaste a 0-byte file.

[andre@compaq-pc tmp]$ fpaste ks.cfg 
No text to send.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/fpaste", line 447, in <module>

TypeError: 'bool' object is not iterable
[andre@compaq-pc tmp]$

If you need more use cases, I can reproduce it

$ fpaste -i
WARNING: your paste looks a lot like binary data instead of text.

I ran into this error when I was trying to solve some audio problems. I run:

$ alsactl init | fpaste

This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.
