X-Mailer: reportbug 3.21.2ubuntu1

Package: beagle
Version: 0.2.9-1ubuntu3
Severity: normal

Every morning I'm getting an email from cron:

> run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/beagle-crawl-system exited with return code 1

This is happening because someone enabled "set -e" in this cron script, and a
test "fails", which causes the entire script to exit immediately. Here's what
happens if I run this script from the command line with /bin/sh -x:

  # /bin/sh -x /etc/cron.daily/beagle-crawl-system
  + set -e
  + [ ! -x /usr/sbin/beagle-build-index ]
  + umask 022
  + CRAWL_USER=beagleindex
  + export TMPDIR=/tmp
  + mktemp -d -p /tmp .beagleindexwapi.XXXXXXXXXX
  + MONO_SHARED_DIR=/tmp/.beagleindexwapi.kaHXT18301
  + chown beagleindex /tmp/.beagleindexwapi.kaHXT18301
  + unset CRAWL_ENABLED CRAWL_DISABLE_FILTERING CRAWL_RECURSIVE CRAWL_CACHE_TEXT CRAWL_ALLOW_PATTERNS CRAWL_DENY_PATTERNS CRAWL_PATHS CRAWL_INDEX_NAME
  + [ -f /etc/beagle/crawl-applications ]
  + . /etc/beagle/crawl-applications
  + CRAWL_ENABLED=yes
  + CRAWL_INDEX_NAME=applications
  + CRAWL_PATHS=/usr/share/applications /usr/local/share/applications /opt/gnome/share/applications /opt/kde3/share/applications
  + CRAWL_RECURSIVE=yes
  + CRAWL_DISABLE_FILTERING=no
  + CRAWL_CACHE_TEXT=no
  + [ -n yes -a yes = yes ]
  + test -n no -a no = yes
  + OPTIONS=

  # echo $?
  1

The test shown above (test -n no -a no = yes) is obviously not true, so the -e
option forces the script to exit immediately.

I suspect someone added the set -e in there for debugging, then forgot to take
it out again. I've checked my .deb file and this script appears like that
(with set -e) in the package file.
