Ubiquity is missing from the daily Lubuntu Yakkety Desktop image

[sudodus]

I thought is is strange that ubiquity is missing in Lubuntu Yakkety - but it works in Xubuntu.

Ubiquity is available in Xubuntu Yakkety 32-bit, and it works (only a small bug, #1577540). So the bug of this reports seems specific for Lubuntu.

[Ubuntu QA Website (ubuntuqa)]

This bug has been reported on the Ubuntu ISO testing tracker.

A list of all reports related to this bug can be found here:

The second attempt of

sudo apt-get install ubiquity

gives the output seen in the attached file.

I can confirm that this is a bug.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I also got this on amd64 on yesterdays image but then got called away on the desktop image before I could report the bug.

[Julien Lavergne (gilir)]

It should be fixed now (see http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/current/yakkety-desktop-i386.manifest), could you check again ? Thanks.

[sudodus (nio-wiklund)]

Yes, now Ubiquity is there in the live session. I tried Lubuntu from yakkety-desktop-i386.iso. Ubiquity started and behaved well in the beginning.

So I think our Lubuntu problem is solved :-)

-o-

But there is another bug (in Ubiquity) that makes it crash, 'Installer crashed during installation' (#1587555).

[sudodus (nio-wiklund)]

Confirmed with Lubuntu from yakkety-desktop-amd64.iso too.

Our Lubuntu problem is solved :-)

[Lyn Perrine (walterorlin)]

I get this with yakkety desktop i386 as well.
