[Bug 707311] Re: /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest don't run due to missing/etc/popularity-contest.conf

[Gabriel Petrovay]

We have the following problem with the popularity-context package that
issues an error daily:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
error: error accessing /var/log/upstart: No such file or directory
error: upstart:1 glob failed for /var/log/upstart/*.log
error: found error in /var/log/upstart/*.log , skipping
/etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest:
/etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest: 18: .: Can't open /etc/popularity-contest.conf
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest exited with return code 2

Title:
  /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest don't run due to missing/etc
  /popularity-contest.conf

Status in “popularity-contest” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: popularity-contest

  Anacron mails the following message to root:

  /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest:
  .: 17: Can't open /etc/popularity-contest.conf
  run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest exited with return code 127

  Looking in /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest it is clear that the culprit is the line
  . /etc/popularity-contest.conf

  Since /etc/popularity-contest.conf isn't installed the script fails.
