The Arch Linux data for the package is out of date.

Homepage: http://drivel.sourceforge.net/

Would appear to be a repeat of this bug:

The package maintainer needs to update the package information.

Drivel 3.0.0 works fine on other systems, so it isn't necessarily an
upstream bug that causing the failure to start reported but this
blogger issue does seem to be upstream. I just don't have a fix.

Patches welcome...
