[Xapian-discuss] cron.daily is tossing this strange message about xapian:

/etc/cron.daily/apt:
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/sbin/update-apt-xapian-index", line 581, in <module>
     import os.path, re, imp, glob, xapian, textwrap, shutil, fcntl, 
errno, itertools, time
   File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/xapian.py", line 6, in <module>
     import _xapian
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/_xapian.so: undefined 
symbol: _ZNK6Xapian8Database19metadata_keys_beginERKSs

I did a search in /etc/apt like grep -R xapian *
and it didn't find anything active.  All references to xapian are 
commented out in sources.list.  The binary file trusted.gpg matches also.

I've recently upgraded to the latest xapian libraries.  Did that do 
something to python unexpectedly?

Thanks,
Jim.
