Bug#242074: gnome-applets-data: postinst failure: no <list_type> specified for schema of type list
Package: gnome-applets-data
Version: 2.4.2-5
Severity: important
Justification: upgrade fails
When upgrading gnome-applets-data to 2.4.2-5 on my testing system, I get
the following output, and upgrade is aborted.
I don't know much/anything about gnome internals, so don't know which
files/data to include to help you, just ask if needed. I attached
/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/apps/mini-commander/prefs/%gconf.xml
(not modified by me, at least not knowingly)
Thanks,
