Mythbuntu

Seconday BE w/o FE installl installs bad packages

Bug #204985 reported by Nick Fox on 2008-03-22

Affects		Status	Importance	Assigned to	Milestone
	Mythbuntu	Fix Released	High	Mario Limonciello
	ubiquity (Ubuntu)	Fix Released	Undecided	Mario Limonciello

Bug Description

Select Advanced > Secondary BE without Frontend
Installed VNC
Installed MythWeb
Installed SSH

After the system is built and rebooted, mytbuntu-startup is installed and 0.25 mythbuntu-live-autostart is also installed. Also noticed that the end of the ubiquity steps did not appear after the install (i.e. mythtv-setup).

When attempting to login to the session for the Secondary BE if a password is provided for mythbuntu-startup to run as sudo, the xfce4 desktop never loads.

Will post the dpkg.log later.

This was causing a crash of the installer, and is really unfortunate to have crept up into the beta. Its fixed in bzr #2581.

  * Change --no-continue option to a more general --only option for use
    in only-ubiquity and automatic-ubiquity modes.
  * Disable the minimize button when using --only (LP: #200034).
  * Properly return in debconf progress functions in the noninteractive
    frontend. Thanks Colin Watson.
  * Print progress updates on a new line again in the noninteractive
    frontend.
  * When clicking back from the advanced partitioner, go back to the first
    partitioning page rather than the keyboard page. Thanks Jonathan
    Riddell.
  * Remove dead code for the old resize widget.
  * Fix printing of non-latin text in the noninteractive frontend.
  * bin/ubiquity-dm: Set groups in drop_privileges.
  * Use the proper username and full name in oem_config mode for the
    noninteractive frontend.
  * Exit on failure to commit to the partition table in the noninteractive
    frontend.
  * Move the spawning of the noninteractive frontend when the noninteractive
    kernel cmdline option is present out of casper and into debian/init.
  * Automatic update of included source packages: choose-mirror
    2.19ubuntu3, localechooser 1.42ubuntu3, partman-auto 73ubuntu6,
    partman-base 114ubuntu4, partman-partitioning 54ubuntu5.

  * Set OVERRIDE_SHOW_ALL_LANGUAGES while calling localechooser, so that
    even languages with complex scripts are displayed (LP: #202291).
  * Run fontconfig-voodoo as root (LP: #203086).

  [ Luke Yelavich ]
  * bin/ubiquity-dm: Set the GTK_MODULES environment variable only when
    at-spi-registryd is loaded.

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * Set proper path to change permissions of vnc files. (LP: #204985)
  * Use newer nvidia syntax in xorg.conf.

  [ Jonathan Riddell ]
  * kde_ui: changes for UBIQUITY_ONLY mode, don't offer a no-reboot method at
    end of install, and hide minimise button on window frame.
  * kde_ui: Fixes to the button icons
