Bug Description
[Impact]
In the focal build of smart-notifier, the important files were not installed, and the resulting binary is useless. A backport as an SRU of the groovy version fixes the issue.
[Test Case]
Run the command:
ls /usr/share/
When fixed, it should output:
smart-notifier
smart_notifier
smart_notifier-
[Regression Potential]
Low... (It cannot be more useless than it currently is.)
[More details]
I installed this in a fresh install of Xubuntu 20.04.1 and, while it installs, the file to which it links:
/usr/bin/
does not exist, so it does not function at all!
