Traceback on more info

[Michael Rawson]

On starting LSC, and clicking on icon:

<snip>

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/michael/lubuntu-software-center/src/main.py", line 509, in on_more_info

  File "/home/michael/lubuntu-software-center/src/threadingops.py", line 130, in getdesc
    for items in cursor.execute("select desc from allpkgs where pkg_name='%s'" % pkg):
sqlite3.OperationalError: no such column: desc
michael@michael-laptop:~/lubuntu-software-center$

I would try and fix but I have no idea how sqlite works.

Sorry, should have been more specific, on the "information" icon.

you have to rebuild the database, with the ppa version the database will be rebuilded, so is a developer only bug.

(to rebuild:
$ cd scripts
$ sudo python lubuntu-software-center-build-db /var/cache/lsc_packages.db /usr/share/app-install/desktop/ /usr/share/LSC/categories
)

thanks. Sorry, never had that one before.
