debug Edit (108.1 KiB, text/plain)

Live CD causes crash after keyboard selection. Fixed this earlier by booting from Live usb, then updating usb, then running ubiquity. This time I ran just enough updates to get past the bug report warning message but I must not have installed the right update.

This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.1.17

---------------
ubiquity (2.1.17) lucid; urgency=low

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * debian/oem-config.postinst:
    - Source debconf to ensure templates are populated in debconf.
  * Drop update-rc.d calls from oem-config scripts as it's only supported
    via upstart now.
  * misc: return True/False from execute_root rather than None.

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Use a GtkSpinner instead of a separate progress window when on the
    manual partitioning page.

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * In cdebconf mode, initialise the templates database if necessary as a
    workaround for cdebconf's packaging not doing this itself.
  * Don't issue PROGRESS REGION command under debconf_ui (LP: #519398).
  * KDE frontend:
    - Don't add partition bar frames for devices we can't find for whatever
      reason (LP: #485450).
  * Pass model, layout, variant, and options to rewrite_xorg_conf
    (LP: #514646).
  * Install zh-hans language packs for zh_CN, and zh-hant language packs for
    zh_TW (LP: #517621).
  * Fix crash on keyboard variant selection (LP: #512953).
  * Enable cancellation of NTP syncing.
  * Correct tuple syntax in copy_debconf, thereby fixing copying of
    console-setup's debconf questions.
  * Fix unmount of /target/dev harder; second and subsequent arguments to
    os.path.join need to not start with a slash.
  * Automatically fall back to vesa if normal X startup fails. This is a
    reduced emulation of bullet-proof-X; using the standard implementation
    is currently tricky.
  * Add a couple of lintian overrides.
  * Explicitly build-depend on xkb-data-i18n. We normally skip
    console-setup's build-dependencies when generating our own, but we need
    this one to run kbdnames-maker.
  * Update translations from Launchpad (LP: #473554, #520905).
  * Automatic update of included source packages: base-installer
    1.103ubuntu3, console-setup 1.34ubuntu9, debian-installer-utils
    1.72ubuntu3, grub-installer 1.49ubuntu4, hw-detect 1.73ubuntu2,
    partman-auto 89ubuntu3, partman-basicfilesystems 63ubuntu3,
    partman-partitioning 72ubuntu3, tzsetup 1:0.26ubuntu5.
