2017-04-26 22:05:56 Robert Ancell description i was installing stuff from the software center ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.10 Package: shim-signed 1.27~16.10.1+0.9+1474479173.6c180c6-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.8.0-45.48-generic 4.8.17 Uname: Linux 4.8.0-45-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.3-0ubuntu8.2 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Apr 3 18:51:34 2017 DuplicateSignature: package:shim-signed:1.27~16.10.1+0.9+1474479173.6c180c6-1ubuntu1 Processing triggers for shim-signed (1.27~16.10.1+0.9+1474479173.6c180c6-1ubuntu1) ... Running in non-interactive mode, doing nothing. dpkg: error processing package shim-signed (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-04-03 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.10 "Yakkety Yak" - Release amd64 (20161012.2) RelatedPackageVersions: dpkg 1.18.10ubuntu1 apt 1.3.4 SourcePackage: shim-signed Title: package shim-signed 1.27~16.10.1+0.9+1474479173.6c180c6-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) [Impact] GNOME Software doesn't provide debconf support when using aptd. This means any package installation / upgrade that triggers a debconf prompt can fail. The requested package might not do a prompt, but some dependency can. [Test Case] 1. Install a .deb file that causes a debconf prompt (https://launchpad.net/~vorlon/+archive/ubuntu/debconf-tests contains a test package). $ gnome-software --local-filename=noisy-fake-driver_0.6_amd64.deb Expected result: Package is installed after a debconf prompt is shown. Observed result: Package fails to install, no prompt is shown. [Regression Potential] The solution was to provide a pipe when using aptd to allow the debconf prompt to be handled in the session. This could introduce new bugs and/or security issues.
