Title:
daily emails to root with unnecessary warning messages
Status in “popularity-contest” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
/etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest generates many messages to be
emailed to root every day.
It looks like it is trying to get information about packages whether
or not they are installed? If so it should suppress the error/warning
messages for missing packages (assuming they are really not anything
which needs human attention).
Alternatively, if there really are missing packages which should be
there, then there must be some missing dependencies somewhere.
