lotuspsychjeah gunnarJ nice fella alkisg 09:45
alkisgEh, launchpad didn't manage to show me the duplicate even though I uploaded the whole apport information :D09:51
alkisgI had to workaround it by patching the python script for now09:51
alkisgI hope I didn't miss anything by removing aptsetup there... :D09:51
alkisglotuspsychje: could you please run this? cat /etc/apt/sources.list | nc termbin.com 999909:54
lotuspsychjesure09:55
alkisgI think that skipping the aptsetup call, left me with a minimal sources.list09:55
alkisgSo I'd like to get yours :D09:55
lotuspsychjehttps://termbin.com/8q0z509:55
alkisgOh yeah, I only got 4 lines :D09:55
alkisgThanks, retrieving...09:55
lotuspsychje\o/09:56
alkisglotuspsychje: do you happen to have the old jammy cd where you installed from? I'd like to see inside it, if its /etc/apt/sources.list is just 3 lines, or many, like in your paste09:58
alkisgIn the new CD, only 3 lines appear, and I think that's the root of the problem09:58
lotuspsychjemaybe i got an early usb jammy09:59
lotuspsychjecan you pull it from there too?09:59
alkisgYes, mount -o loop iso /mnt10:03
alkisgthen mount -o loop /mnt/casper/fileystem.squashfs /mnt10:03
alkisgthen cat /mnt/etc/apt/sources.list10:03
alkisgthen double umount /mnt10:03
lotuspsychjeits a burned iso on stick alkisg 10:07
alkisgThen just the second mount, without the first that mounts the iso10:07
lotuspsychjedont got the original iso left10:07
guivercalkisg, lubuntu install media works (using calamares & not ubiquity; Eickmeyer suggested issue could be python3 version change)10:10
lotuspsychjemount: /mnt: failed to setup loop device for /mnt/casper/fileystem.squashfs.10:10
guiverc^ talking about install issues; 195139910:10
alkisgguiverc: thanks; I suspect the problem is in a script that generates /etc/apt/sources.list in a new format (3 lines only)10:11
guiverc:)    (I've not really looked so have no idea)10:11
alkisglotuspsychje: is there a /casper/filesystem.squashfs file in the stick?10:12
lotuspsychjeyep10:15
alkisgsudo mount -o ro, loop /path/to/casper/filesystem.squashfs /mnt10:15
alkisgcat /mnt/etc/apt/sources.list10:15
alkisg(see if it's 3 lines or more)10:15
alkisgsudo umount /mnt10:15
lotuspsychjemount: /media/lotuspsychje/Ubuntu 22.04 LTS amd64/casper/filesystem.squashfs: apparaat loop bestaat niet10:18
alkisg(I put an extra space inside ro, loop)10:18
alkisgYou might need quoting if the directory has spaces10:19
lotuspsychjelotuspsychje@R00TB00K:/media/lotuspsychje/Ubuntu 22.04 LTS amd64/casper$ sudo mount -o ro loop filesystem.squashfs /mnt10:21
lotuspsychjemount: bad usage10:21
alkisgIt needs a comma there, not a space10:22
alkisg-o ro,loop10:22
lotuspsychjedeb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy main restricted10:23
lotuspsychjedeb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy-security main restricted10:23
lotuspsychjedeb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy-updates main restricted10:23
alkisgThanks, then my hypothesis is wrong :)10:24
guivercalkisg, i've booted a lubuntu jammy; 4 total source lines; 1 being CD; 1 main rest uni muilti, 1 jammy-security, 1 jammy-updates only10:24
alkisgguiverc: thanks, although if it's using calamares then it would use a completely different code path, and it might not be affected by the issue at all...10:24
guiverclike what lotuspsychje had pasted; but universe given lubuntu10:25
guivercyep. lubuntu isn't impacted (nor ubuntu-studio who also use..)10:25
alkisgAnyway I manged to work around it by editing the python file and removing the aptsetup call; I'm transferring the installation (that was done in a VM) to my main pc currently10:25
alkisgThe good thing with UEFI is that I don't need a live USB to switch between 2 installations even if they are on the same partition :D10:27
alkisgBack after reboot...10:27
lotuspsychje\o/10:28
alkisgAnd that's the beauty of Linux... by "clean installing" and then just copying /home, you continue from right where you where :D10:41
