Bug Description

Binary package hint: synaptic

The quick search is outdated after a release upgrade from intrepid to jaunty.

TEST CASE:
1. upgrade intrepid->jaunty
2. run synaptic after the upgrade and type "notify-osd" in the quick-search field
3. verify that its not there

4. restore stock intrepid
5. upgrade (with intrepid-proposed enabled)
6. repeat step 2 but wait ~2minutes
7. verify that the quick search index gets rebuild and that notify-osd if found afterwards

I was unable to reproduce the reported error with synaptic 0.62.5ubuntu2.1 after performing an update from intrepid (notify-osd and screen-profiles, both added in jaunty, showed up when entered into the search location); however, with the version of synpatic in jaunty-proposed, 0.62.5ubuntu3, searching still worked after waiting for the re-indexing operation to complete. Other operations, such as adding, removing, and updating software also continued to function, so this update appears to be safe from a regressions standpoint.

Thanks Steve for testing! I consider this sufficient, I'm mostly interested in regression testing.

This bug was fixed in the package synaptic - 0.62.5ubuntu3

---------------
synaptic (0.62.5ubuntu3) jaunty-proposed; urgency=low

  * improve the logic when the xapian index needs
    rebuilding by checking the xapian document count
    against the available packages (LP: #365151)
