Hi,

sorry for the unrelated changes in my last post.

Now a real patch against "/usr/sbin/popularity-contest" as of "popularity-contest 1.51ubuntu1" with minimal changes.

The bug encountered raises a question though: why wasn't a "lint" rule along the lines of "never use open without interpreting the returned value" applied?
