Ubuntu one crashes in scan()

[Zygmunt Krynicki]

Binary package hint: ubuntuone-client

My files are not synchronized correctly. I started checking why and found that u1syncdaemon crashes on startup:

2010-12-20 11:03:00,014 - twisted - ERROR - Unhandled error in Deferred:
2010-12-20 11:03:00,015 - twisted - ERROR - Unhandled Error

exceptions.AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'st_ino'

TEST CASE:
1. Create a new file: ~/Ubuntu One/692496.txt and wait until it is synced
2. Open Applications > Accessories > Terminal and run:
u1sdtool --info=/home/$USER/Ubuntu\ One/692496.txt

3. Copy mdid output from the command above and use below in place of $MDID-FROM-STEP2:
u1sdtool -q
cd /tmp
wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntuone-client/+bug/692496/+attachment/1870999/+files/692496_test.py
python 692496_test.py --mdid=$MDID-FROM-STEP2
u1sdtool -c

Result: Syncdaemon errors and crashes: exceptions.AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'st_ino'

Expected result: No syncdaemon error and syncdaemon continues to run properly, scanning files

Is the package in Maverick going to be updated with the fix?

[dobey (dobey)]

Yes, but we need to coordinate some other fixes for an SRU to Maverick.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Accepted ubuntuone-client into maverick-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!
