Bug#438339: bug-buddy complains about missing gnome-desktop, but that doesn't exist

2007-08-16 Thread Reuben Thomas
Package: bug-buddy
Version: 2.18.1-2
Severity: normal

bug-buddy runs for me when another application (yelp) crashes, but complains:

Bug Buddy was unable to retrieve information regarding the version of
GNOME you are running. This is most likely due to a missing
installation of gnome-desktop.

bug-buddy then stops running. What is gnome-desktop? There seems to
be no package of this name. Could bug-buddy Suggest or Depend on
whatever is needed? Also, why does it stop running? I'd be happy to
tell it the version of the program that crashed!

The missing file is located in the gnome-about package. Yes, this is
silly.

Looks like we need to move this file to gnome-desktop-data and make
bug-buddy depend on it.
