oem config prepare crashes on kde

[aaron]

Binary package hint: ubiquity

on every one of our kde machines regardless of hardware, we get an error on loading after running oem-config-prepare

we can't click on the 'file a bug report' icon because this is prior to the desktop loading. it's an oem config prepare bug. however, the message says:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-language.py", line 621, in on_language_selection_changed
   self.update_release_notes_label()
 File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-language.py", line 636, in update_release_notes_label
   if self.release_notes_found and self.update_installer:
AttributeError: 'PageKde' object has no attribute 'release_notes_found'

That's it. I think I typed that all correctly.
This means we can't install kde on our prebuilt linux computers, which means we can't offer kde as an operating system. Please let's fix this so we can get kde to more people. Otherwise we're happy to just install gnome on our computers.

Note that I can't attach the var/log/ etc files as the system breaks at this point and I can do nothing with it. I can't get to a desktop when the installer crashes, so I can't run a bug report from the computer having the problem.

Thank you for this bug report.

Seems that the PageKde class does not implement this particular part of the UI.

Should be easy to fix.
The variable relates to a whole UI component (label) that displays the release notes (if found).
Relevant starting point for porting is PageGtk's __init__

Hey Aaron, do you by chance remember the version you were running when you got this error? At the earliest point in the ubiquity code repo, it looks as if 10.10 (Maverick) was the first release with the ubi-* plugins. Just a quick glance through the code, I don't see much that was different between now & then when doing an OEM install. Are you having these issues with OEM installs in the later releases of Kubuntu? I just did an OEM install with 11.10 (Oneiric) and 12.04 (Precise) and I am getting ready to do a 10.04 LTS (Lucid) install to see if I can reproduce a lot of the older issues reported here in LP. Thanks!
