2006-05-21 15:33:53 Timo Jyrinki ubiquity: statusexplanation I can confirm similar thing happening with 2005-05-20 amd64 live-cd. I selected manual partinioning, did not do any changes and went to mount point selection page. I had 5 partitions automatically inserted, but changes the three last ones to have all blank rows. Then I changed the second row to point to an existing swap partition, selected swap use type and removed "format" selection. To the first row I selected /dev/sda6, selected "/" as the mount point and let the format selection be selected. Clicking next I got a crash, but don't have traceback or syslog at the moment. I had an impression there was some mention about these "blank" rows. Anyway, I've also gotten similar crashes before when doing these partition selections and clicking next.

Anyway, I've also gotten similar crashes before when doing these partition selections and clicking next. ubiquity (1.1.5) edgy; urgency=low * Add 3% to the "Removing extra packages" stage of the installation progress bar, since in Ubuntu installations it often has a lot of language packs to remove. * Work around weirdness regarding some partitions going missing from part_labels/part_devices in frontends. The right fix is probably to update part_labels/part_devices with information from gparted/qtparted, but since that system is due to be replaced anyway it's probably not worth the effort (closes: Malone #45200). * Suppress unnecessary translations of "${MESSAGE}". * Remove some cruft from the source package. * Make zoom-in.png global rather than distribution-specific. * Remove intltool-* on distclean; configure creates them. * Move liveinstaller.glade to a better place in the source package, and rename it to ubiquity.glade. * Update debian/copyright regarding the status of Ubiquity with respect to the original Guadalinex work. * Move glade/pixmaps/* to pixmaps/*; they can be used in non-GTK frontends too. * Remove netcloner script; if this is ever resurrected, it should probably be an init script or similar instead. * Move documentation to doc/ directory; remove obsolete TODO; note that the README is largely obsolete. * Stop installing README.es. * Remove cruft from ubiquity.settings. * Retranslate "Step N of M" immediately when the language is changed. * Tighten ubiquity's dependencies on frontend and artwork packages. * Don't build ubiquity-frontend-{gtk,kde}_*.deb if the respective UBIQUITY_NO_{GTK,KDE} is defined. * Check whether squashfs devices exist before trying to mount them. * Ship all the bits of localechooser we need, and drop our dependency on localechooser-data (closes: Malone #40364). -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@ubuntu.com> Thu, 3 Aug 2006 14:13:43 +0100
