Description Matej Cepl 2008-06-13 13:18:49 UTC

I would like to set these environment variables

IDLE_PERSIST=1 IDLE_DEBUG=all
IDLE_LOGFILE=/tmp/idle-log IDLE_TIMING=1

to make telepathy-idle to log all debugging info info a log file.

Robot101 suggested on #telepathy, that the patch should be an one-liner, but I don't see a way how to do it (maybe that's the reason I am not employed as an programmer @ Red Hat ;-)).

IDLE_LOGFILE is now supported: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/26627

Comment 2 Debarshi Ray 2011-03-03 15:59:59 UTC

IDLE_DEBUG and IDLE_PERSIST are also supported.

So it seems. Thanks!
