Package: vit
Version: 2.2.0-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

   Installed vit, ran `vit` to launch program.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

   Ran `vit` command.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi Jochen,

Thanks for coming back to me. On first look, I thought the issue might
have been in the vit config file but following your advice, and on
closer inspection with pdb, I seemed to have two problematic lines in my
.taskrc config:

context.home=project.h
context.work=project.w

I don't know why these seemed to get by taskwarrior - perhaps they are a
legacy format, but this is not correct according to man taskrc for
2.6.2, for creating a context.

Fixed by removing these lines.

Many thanks and apologies for the "grave" bug drama.... :-)
