Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: popularity-contest
/etc/cron.weekly/popularity-contest in natty now shows:
readline() on closed filehandle FILES at /usr/sbin/popularity-contest line 104.
readline() on closed filehandle FILES at /usr/sbin/popularity-contest line 104.
readline() on closed filehandle FILES at /usr/sbin/popularity-contest line 104.
...
looking at the sources:
open PACKAGES, "dpkg-query --show --showformat='\${status} \${package}\\n'|";
while (<PACKAGES>)
{
/^.*installed *(.+)$/ or next;
my $pkg=$1;
$popcon{$pkg}=[0,0,$pkg,"<NOFILES>"];
open FILES, "$dpkg_db/$pkg.list";
my $bestatime = undef;
while (<FILES>) { <==================== 104
a simple printf shows why:
$ ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info/zlib1g.list
ls: cannot access /var/lib/dpkg/info/zlib1g.list: No such file or directory
$ ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info/zlib1g*.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 227 2011-03-22 08:10
/var/lib/dpkg/info/zlib1g:amd64.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1267 2011-03-22 08:10 /var/lib/dpkg/info/zlib1g-dev.list
so it seems it's caused by the new multi-arch thingy.
