[xml/sgml-pkgs] Xml-related problem with gconftool-2 on Debian Squeeze

[S a m i]

Hello,

I run into this problem when installing Debian packages, while "processing triggers for gconf2".

It seems the xml parser that gconf-tool uses for schema files, can't parse long xml:s.

# export GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE="xml:readwrite:"/var/lib/gconf/defaults
# export HOME=/home/sami/test
# gconftool-2 --makefile-install-rule /usr/share/gconf/schemas/evince-thumbnailer-ps.schemas
/usr/share/gconf/schemas/evince-thumbnailer-ps.schemas:117: parser error : Premature end of data in tag schema line 116
 
 ^
/usr/share/gconf/schemas/evince-thumbnailer-ps.schemas:117: parser error : Premature end of data in tag schemalist line 2
 
 ^
/usr/share/gconf/schemas/evince-thumbnailer-ps.schemas:117: parser error : Premature end of data in tag gconfschemafile line 1
 
 ^

There is nothing wrong with the xml file, it is just sent truncated to the parser. I updated all relevant packages to the stable version.

regards,

Sami Kivistö
