Bug Description
Trying to set up the unity8 session from a vivid host fails with the following error:
http://
After an IRC conversation with bregma on IRC, it seems that the vivid build in the PPA is missing some fixes that were released in the wily build. Manually installing the wily package allows continuing with the setup successfully.
Would it be possible to trigger a build from the same branch the wily one was created, but this time for vivid?

To post a comment you must log in.
It seems this sometimes might occur if the containers package cache is out of date. I use the "--no-download" option to try to force apt-get to only use the upstart-sysv package retrieved by dget. However, according to man apt-get, it's best to also use "--ignore-missing" to truly force apt to only use the downloaded packages.
I'll add that option as well and hopefully it will fix this.
