Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
When trying to update Feisty the update manager emits an error from python. It seems that /home it hard-wired into the code.
I don't have a /home (I have a /lhome) since the network manager want to be able to nfs-mount my network home. The error
I get from my .xsession-errors file is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/
self.
File "/usr/lib/
st = os.statvfs(d)
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home'
When I went in and changed the "/home" to "/lhome" in line 946 all worked fine. Of course, this is not a good solution.
Just thought you'd like to know.
