Thi swill happen each time scrollkeeper-updatedb is run, and is caused
by a problem in the configuration script in scrollkeeper.
You can apply the patch I posted in the scrollkeeper-devel list, which
can be found at
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=5313573
I think it should apply cleanly to the current release.
This was apparently commited (see
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=5351410) but for
some reason the released tarball for 2.4 did not include it.

he sacado la mayor lección de mi vida. Aprendí a respetar las ideas

vena de confesiones, hago una más, quizás superflua: detesto con
toda mi alma a los fanáticos.
