[Bug 51149] Re: popularity-contest does not work out of the box

[Mr Canis]

Hello Michael Vogt,
I have ubuntu 6.10 edgy installed. What I did was following. I changed the two lines ( 55 and 56 ):

        #if setsid /usr/share/popularity-contest/popcon-upload-ubuntu \
	#    -u $URL -f $POPCON 2>/dev/null ; then
	if setsid /usr/share/popularity-contest/popcon-upload \
	    -u $URL -f $POPCON -C 2>/dev/null ; then

but I the same error appears, after start, at the command prompt,
/etc/cron.weekly/popularity-contest:

Jan 19 10:41:35 laptop popularity-contest: unable to submit report to http://popcon.ubuntu.com/popcon-submit.cgi.
Jan 19 10:41:35 laptop popularity-contest: unable to submit report using sendmail.
Jan 19 10:41:35 laptop popularity-contest: unable to submit report.

Then I examined the python script. For the result see my message from 2007-01-21 13:07:43 CET. And with that changes no errors appear.
Perhaps I did something wrong. I questioned that in the message from 2007-01-22 16:45:43 CET.
What do you think, what happens?
How I mentioned earlier, I don't want make my system incompatible to the Ubuntu update mechanism.

Thanks in advance,
                                  Mr Canis
