"Invalid input for '29.9KB' (hformat='si')" on Ubuntu 10.10

[Andrew Ziem]

I recently ran Bleachbit as admin and in the log, there was this:

"Invalid input for '29.9KB' (hformat='si')"

What exactly is this? Is this a bug?

Thanks :]

I cannot reproduce on my Ubuntu 10.10 and BleachBit 0.8.7.

I get it every time I use it. I'll see if it happens on Fedora 14 i686.

[Theatre-X (theatrex)]

I don't get the bug on Fedora 14. Hmm.

[Andrew Ziem (ahziem1)]

On Ubuntu 10.10, 'sudo apt-get autoclean' never prints the file size as it once did when I first implemented the feature. On your system, please run the command 'sudo apt-get autoclean' in a terminal, and paste the output here. It should have something like

Del 29.9kB

Also, is your system US English?

The error can't happen on Fedora because Fedora uses yum instead of apt.

[Theatre-X (theatrex)]

Yes it is US English. I have to go configure the boot loader because I installed Fedora AFTER Ubuntu. ^_^

Do you see this with BleachBit 0.8.8? On which Linux distro/version?

[Andrew Ziem (ahziem1)]

To reproduce the error, you may need to delete bleachbit.ini: the easiest way is to click File - Shred Settings and Quit.

Disregard comment about bleachbit.ini

[Theatre-X (theatrex)]

I will test this.

Closed for lack of response. If this happens and you have the open, please reopen.

I am resetting the incomplete response
