p_trying to find out why my installation failed. can someone help me? I know nothing about python. syslog reports a traceback for the python files.11:48
ogra_first step is to file a bug11:49
ogra_preferably using ubuntu-bug which will attach all logs11:49
p_can someone tell me what "status, data =resp, '' "does do in python? why does afterwards "status" contain the value ''?11:50
ogra_(theoretically a crashed installer should already offer you an ability to file a bug automatically though)11:50
ogra_(depending on the kind of install you did, desktop definitely does)11:50
p_I think it didn't file a bugreport since it didn't crash, there's only an error from python.11:55
ogra_pastebin the syslog from the install then so someone can take a look ... if there are fatal errors the installer usually stops though11:56
p_what commandline should I use with ubuntu-bug for the installer?12:20
ogra_"ubuntu-bug debian-installer" i would guess12:27
p_nope.12:29
p_with "ubiquity" it works though.12:31
ogra_so use that :)12:32
jibel_how can I check which version of debian-installer is used for a specific image ? for example I want to check which version is in http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/precise/daily/20120726/precise-alternate-amd64.iso12:38
jibel_the problem is that precise dailies failed with an usual no kernel modules found, it should be fixed with d-i 20101020ubuntu136.2 uploaded yesterday, but todays are failing again.12:39
brendandstrange, no .manifest files ?12:56
p_ok, I filed Bug #1029443, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/102944513:28
