[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Workaround from Tj; 3 commands (ignore word-wrapping by launchpad):

cd ~/.local/share/kaffeine
mv scanfile.dvb{,.$(awk 'C==1{print;exit}/^\[date\]/{C=1}' scanfile.dvb)}
wget https://linuxtv.org/downloads/dtv-scan-tables/kaffeine/scantable.dvb -O scanfile.dvb

----


Running Kaffeine 2.0.18 on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Plasma Desktop.  Update Scan Data Over Internet fails with message: Scan data update failed

I believe Kaffeine is looking for a file called scanfile.dvb or perhaps
scanfile.dvb.qz

https://linuxtv.org/downloads/dtv-scan-tables/kaffeine/ shows a file
called scantable.dvb  (Different file name)

The wiki here (https://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Dtv-scan-tables) says
that this file will be autocreated and eventually be located here:
https://autoconfig.kde.org/kaffeine/  The file i see at  this location
is currently called: scantable.dvb.qz

Perhaps this is just a file naming issue?

Thanks,

Iestyn Guest
