Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Ubiquity's OEM mode is broken. It creates gdm.conf.oem or kdmrc.oem files for autologin which have doubled line breaks and in any case are the wrong way round, in that the .oem file is meant to be a backup of the original rather than the modified file. This is due to a buggy conversion of the original sed -i code to Python. This needs to be corrected before RC.

ubiquity (1.6.3) gutsy; urgency=low
[ Evan Dandrea ]
* Remember to not use the migration-assistant dbfilter when using
--no-
* Update noninteractive frontend to use recent changes to FilteredCommand
(LP: #149473).
[ Colin Watson ]
* Remove excessive blank lines in GDM and KDM configuration files in OEM
mode.
* GTK frontend:
- Make sure the next button remains the default widget despite being
hidden and re-shown.
* Shell out to sed for now rather than using flaky, complicated, and above
all incorrect code to edit gdm.conf and kdmrc for autologin in OEM mode
(LP: #149985).
* Update translations from Rosetta.
* Automatic update of included source packages: user-setup 1.14ubuntu4.
