I didn't mean to say that the problem would be easy to debug. Or solely a Ubuntu problem, as I am well aware that it happens at least on Debian too.
I am glad you located the offending patch. Does it explain why "some people can produce the issue on one machine but cannot on another with the same version"?
If I could have found a machine that didn't have the problem I wouldn't have been that desperate. I tried new installs, older upgrades, i32 and amd64, VM. All the same.
I think some confuse the form showing 'read only' with 'cannot enter data in the form'.
Will the 'rebuild' show up in the PPA? I can't wait to try it.
