Bug Description

Binary package hint: kaffeine

The backported package in Intrepid doesn't contain any executable file, maybe a packaging problem. (version 0.8.7-1ubuntu1)

Fixed by 0.8.7-1ubuntu2 (see bug 307175) which needs to be backported. Subscribing ums hoping that a core-dev (or jr) can take care of it.

I think the importance and urgency of this bug should be raised.

Regarding bug 307175: note that this is not just a 64-bit problem. I have an x86 system and I was just hit by this.

This morning I has adept-updater telling me that there are new updates for my system showing kaffeine as the only package that would be updated. I clicked on update and lost my kaffeine executable.

    ...
    Unpacking kaffeine (from .../kaffeine_0.8.7-1ubuntu1~intrepid1_i386.deb) ...
    Processing triggers for man-db ...
    Processing triggers for menu ...
    Setting up kaffeine (0.8.7-1ubuntu1~intrepid1) ...

Processing triggers for menu ...

After this, oops! kaffeine is gone: See this bash session:

    $ kaffeine
    The program 'kaffeine' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
    sudo apt-get install kaffeine
    bash: kaffeine: command not found

    $ sudo apt-get install kaffeine

  * Intrepid backport, remove kdelibs versioned build-dep (really)
