Package: gnome-schedule
Severity: serious
Hi,
(This is a resend, as the original bug report was accepted by
bugs.debian.org, but I never got any ack. The original submission was
Severity: important and is attached. I upgraded to severity serious
because I discovered that a scrollkeeper update is not enough to repair
the db.)
Your package ships the generated /var/lib/scrolkeeper data which should
only be updated by your postinst, not shipped in your package.
Usually, this is because you forgot to configure with
--disable-scrollkeeper, but I didn't check your particular source.
Please don't ship /var/lib/scrollkeeper, it causes uninstallability
if another package does so, erases the scrollkeeper database on
install and remove.
You'll need to add a postinst snipset to rebuild the database in case
users have installed a borken version.
Bye,
