Title:
  Update Scan Data Over Internet fails

Status in Kaffeine:
  Unknown
Status in kaffeine package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  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,
