[15:58] <GrueMaster> cjwatson: How long do I have to test lp:1180880?  I will be building new systems for shipping later this week, and will be able to test it then, but I am busy with other tasks for the next few days.
[15:58] <cjwatson> Oh, I expect it would be weeks before anyone started prodding you
[15:59] <GrueMaster> It was pushed to proposed on Friday.
[16:00] <GrueMaster> In my former job, I would have tested it within hours of hitting proposed, but the new job has different priorities.  :P
[16:00] <cjwatson> If you want to not end up blocking anyone, then "this week"
[16:00] <cjwatson> (Assuming the other bugs fixed by the same upload get tested)
[16:01] <GrueMaster> Excellent.  I do have some systems to build later this week (Wed or Thu), so planned on testing it then.
[16:01] <cjwatson> Thanks
[17:25] <bdmurray> xnox: could you have a look at bug 1186735?
[17:25] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 1186735 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "disappointing installation crash" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1186735
[17:26] <bdmurray> From what I can tell it looks like the installer fails to get some information from the archive but carries on with the install and then crashes
[17:28] <bdmurray> I found some similar ones too like bug 1186651 and bug 1186637

[17:31] <xnox> bdmurray: your analysis looks correct. It did download sources/packages/translations, but they were all invalid (I am guessing captive WiFi portal?! or proxy redirect/login page), which resulted in invalid apt-cache status on disk, which blows up later.
[17:32] <bdmurray> xnox: I see some unable to connects - Unable to connect to gb.archive.ubuntu.com:http: [IP: 198.18.1.32 80]
[17:33] <xnox> well, if the cache is invalid (regardless how we got there), we should just copy the valid one from the cdimage (i hope we have one there).
[17:35] <bdmurray> xnox: is there already a bug tracking that?
[19:24] <superm1> can you do a test once they input the wifi network to see if they're in a captive portal/proxy and spawn out a gtk webkit or FF in that scenario?
[21:22] <xnox> superm1: we already do of the sorts test. We check the md5sum of the http://start.ubuntu.com/connectivity-check.html
[21:22] <xnox> and if that doesn't match, we assume we do not have internet connectvity.
[21:22] <superm1> ah
[21:23] <xnox> superm1: mpt did create a design of how the captive portals should work & auto-popup for sign-in, but that was not implement yet on any of the platforms (installer, desktop, touch...)
[21:24] <xnox> superm1: but one can launch a browser to login and that should make "internet" available. but it's not easily discoverable.
