13:24 < CIA-2> ubiquity: cjwatson * r5159 trunk/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/parted_server.py):
13:24 < CIA-2> ubiquity: Mark file descriptors used for communication with parted_server
13:24 < CIA-2> ubiquity: FD_CLOEXEC.
13:24 < cjwatson> bdmurray: ^- wasn't necessary to fix Kate's system, but was one of the things I found as a possibility when debugging it; we'll see if that helps
13:25 < cjwatson> basically the same kind of fix in a slightly different place
13:25 < bdmurray> cjwatson: got it, thanks
So this may not be fixed in the Alpha 2 images but should be fixed when an updated ubiquity comes out.
