Failed to install all packages selected in Edubuntu according to error popup

[Jeff Lane ]

Doing an install of 64bit Edubuntu Precise Alpha 2 on a VBox VM.

During the install, I chose defaults for pretty much everything. This means that during package selection, I did NOT choose the Gnome Fallback desktop, I did NOT install 3rd party stuff or updates, and I DID leave selected all the various Edubuntu package options.

At the end of install, I got a popup dialog that said that some packages had failed to install, but no "More" link or any way to really see which packages had failed.

I'm hoping they'll end up in the attached logs.

Thanks for your report.

Could be bug 924182

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

I don't see anything in the attached logs indicating what went wrong.

I don't believe bug 924182 is entirely relevant the system ended up getting the package lists from the archive.

The ubiquity syslog seems truncated, I also noticed a few stacktraces that seem related to font configuration and langpacks installation.

Having done an identical install for alpha-2 testing (Edubuntu amd64 with Unity, no LTSP and all packages), I didn't see this problem, but the syslog clearly points to a few installation issues, though not too clearly to be able to figure if they are the reason of the failure.
