Bug#628778: Cannot add hamster-applet to panel; hamster-standalone fails

[Erdal Ronahi]

Package: hamster-applet
Version: 2.30.2-3
Severity: important

Adding the hamster applet to the panel results in only a one pixel wide line.

Starting "hamster-standalone" from a terminal gives the following result:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/hamster-standalone", line 536, in <module>
    app = ProjectHamster()
  File "/usr/bin/hamster-standalone", line 64, in __init__

    activities = self.fetchall(query, (u'%s%%' % search, ))

    self.execute("ALTER TABLE facts add column description varchar2")
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/hamster/db.py", line 894, in execute
    res = cur.execute(statement[i], params[i])
sqlite3.OperationalError: duplicate column name: description


I purged the package, deleted all related user-specific and global
configuration and reinstalled. The result is the same.
