Package: gconf
Version: 2.31.4-1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: origin-ubuntu natty ubuntu-patch
In Ubuntu, we've applied the attached patch to achieve the following:
* debian/update-gconf-defaults:
- check if a file exists before trying to read it, otherwise
it crashes on broken symlinks (LP: #633370)
We thought you might be interested in doing the same.
This fixes a issue we had with one package that used a symlink
in the gconf defaults directory and did not properly remove/rename
it on upgrade so that it pointed in the void. That caused
update-gconf-defaults to raise a exception. Certainly a problem
with the package, but it would be nice if update-gconf-defaults
would be more robust too. Thinking about it, it could print a
big warning if it finds a not existing file.
Cheers,
Michael
