Package: referencer
Version: 1.1.3-4+b2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
If started from the command line referencer generates the following output:
--- snip ---
$ referencer
main: setting PYTHONPATH to
'::/home/foo/lib/python:/home/foo/.referencer/plugins:/usr/lib/referencer:'
PluginManager::scan: Found module 'lyx'
Plugin::load: No metadata capabilities in lyx
Trying /usr/lib/referencer/lyx.png
Plugin::load: successfully loaded 'lyx'
PluginManager::scan: Found module 'pubmed'
Plugin::load: No actions in pubmed
Plugin::load: successfully loaded 'pubmed'
(referencer:21633): GConf-CRITICAL **: gconf_entry_get_key: assertion `entry !=
NULL' failed
**
GConf:ERROR:gconf-client.c:2020:gconf_client_lookup: assertion failed:
(last_slash != NULL)
Aborted
--- snip ---
Apparently referencer tries to lookup a missing GConf key which results in a
failed assertion. The
key in question is 'disabledplugins' and adding it as an empty string list key
to '/apps/referencer'
solved the problem.
I would like to note that this Bug is related to #522016, because it would be
solved by providing
a GConf schema with correct default values.
with kind regards
