Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
TEST CASE:
- the bug itself is difficult to trigger, its a race
- a regression test is sufficient, if u-m can still install after clicking on the install button
I've noticed a few times on my Lucid machine that pressing the "Install" button in update-manager doesn't seem to do anything. This happened to me again today in KVM, and I was able to get this traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/
self.
File "/usr/lib/
for (dir, size) in [(archivedir, self.requiredDo
File "/usr/lib/
pm.
SystemError: E:I wasn't able to locate file for the gzip package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.

[ Michael Vogt ] UpdateManager. py: DistUpgrade. cfg: DistUpgradeView Gtk.py, /DistUpgradeVie wKDE.py, :
* UpdateManager/
- do not crash if the free space check fails (LP: #656881)
* DistUpgrade/
- add blcr-dkms to the "BadVersions" variable. The current blcr-dkms
source will not build with 2.6.35. Adding it here will cause the
upgrade to abort with a message if it is installed.
It also means that if support for 2.6.35 is added to blcr-dkms via
a SRU that will automatically unblock the upgrade (LP: #555729)
* DistUpgrade/
DistUpgrade
- workaround dpkg not sending the correct filename on conffile
prompts over the status-fd (LP: #656912)
[ Jonathan Riddell ] DistUpgradeView KDE.py: show_difference _button, workaround for
* DistUpgrade/
- disable confDialogue.
"distupgrade crashed during conf file change review" (LP: #656876)
requires release note that user needs to view changes manually on command line
