rifle call with wrong arguments?

[ttxtea]

papis, version 0.12
ranger/rifle, version 3.10.6

how to reproduce the issue

If papis is used to open a pdf file from a library (file exists)

papis -l mylib open

and then an entry is selected, then

rifle: error: the following arguments are required: --isa_spec/-ispec, --platform_spec/-pspec

This may well be a rifle issue. But let it be reported here, as maybe the rifle call in papis has changed.

Thanks for the report! Unfortunately, I can't tell what's going on, so we'll have to debug a bit 😁

Any idea where those extra flags come from? From a quick search on github, they seem to match the flags of riscv-config. Any chance you have a typo in your config somewhere? Maybe in the ranger / rifle configuration for the file type you're trying to open (not a ranger user, unfortunately)..

On our side, when opening a file, papis just does subprocess.call([opentool, filename]), so we do not add any flags in there (see here). Can you check what the open tool is set to using

papis -l mylib config opentool

? (mine just shows xdg-open) You can also run with debug messages enabled using

papis -l mylib --log DEBUG open

which should print a cmd: rifle [arg] [arg] [arg] 'filename' message when it tries to open the file. That should tell us if there are extra flags in there.
