| ev | okay, so it's clearly failing inside update.d/99*ubiquity, which is a bit odd given how simple the code is, so I'm wondering if debconf is getting wedged earlier and this is just surfacing the error | 00:44 |
|---|---|---|
| ev | (|| logger -t ... the update.d scripts in update_partition clearly points the finger at 99ubiquity) | 00:45 |

| cjwatson | ev: have you seen bug 738366? | 15:14 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 738366 in ubiquity ""Erase Natty" wording DANGEROUSLY misleading" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/738366 | 15:14 |
| cjwatson | looks like a bug rather than merely misleading wording ... | 15:15 |
| CIA-31 | ubiquity: cjwatson * r4589 trunk/debian/ubiquity.templates: consistently end sentences with full stops | 15:16 |
| ev | if Ubuntu is the only operating system it finds on a disk, then it wipes the disk for the "Erase Natty and install 11.04" | 15:16 |
| cjwatson | the report says that Windows was installed | 15:19 |
| ev | indeed, I suspect os-prober isn't picking up windows (perhaps it's mounted), or the code is broken somewhere | 15:20 |
| CIA-31 | ubiquity: cjwatson * r4590 trunk/debian/changelog: changes in automatic partitioning text fix LP: #736959 | 15:20 |
| ev | the bigger problem is that I need to get the introductory string in that the specification mentions | 15:20 |
| cjwatson | being mounted shouldn't matter any more ... | 15:20 |
| ev | oh, right | 15:20 |
| ev | intro string> it wouldn't mention Windows, which would hopefully alert users to something being up | 15:21 |
| cjwatson | mm, I agree that is a problem although I'm not convinced it's a bigger problem :-) | 15:23 |
| ev | heh, perhaps that was poor phrasing on my part | 15:24 |
| ev | I've followed up on the bug | 15:24 |
| cjwatson | bah, the oem-config-debconf changes broke operation from the server CD | 16:40 |
| cjwatson | and I think probably generally just broke oem-config-debconf | 16:40 |
| CIA-31 | ubiquity: cjwatson * r4591 trunk/debian/ (changelog oem-config-debconf.oem-config-debconf.upstart): | 16:48 |

| CIA-31 | ubiquity: (filesystem and stopped udevtrigger); this guarantees that we will never | 16:48 |
| CIA-31 | ubiquity: end up without a controlling terminal because tty1 has already started. | 16:48 |
| cjwatson | ev: IIRC you were scratching your head over bug 739891 or a similar bug; if it helps, it looks to me as though something, probably a maintainer script, has either written to stdout or read from stdin in an uncontrolled manner, causing the debconf protocol to get out of sync | 16:50 |

| cjwatson | I suspect the nvidia packaging | 16:54 |

| cjwatson | confirming that it gets all the way through an installation ... | 19:26 |
| bdmurray | ev: I'd like to have a bug day for ubiquity this week and specifically focus on recreating bugs in the New state and help to move them to Confirmed. Does that seem alright with you? | 20:54 |
| cjwatson | FWIW, the easiest bugs for at least me to fix are those that come with a recipe for recreating them in kvm - I don't know about ev | 20:56 |
| cjwatson | not that others are invalid, but ... | 20:56 |
| bdmurray | At one point in time I tried to create a multi-partition disk image for kvm to recreate a bug but didn't get very far. Do you have any tips for that? | 20:58 |
| cjwatson | what went wrong? | 20:58 |
| cjwatson | that sort of thing generally just works for me | 20:58 |
| cjwatson | but I have some set habits that perhaps are helping | 20:59 |
