[Bug 777381] Re: oem config prepare crashes on kde

[Richard Johnson]

Hey Aaron, do you by chance remember the version you were running when
you got this error? At the earliest point in the ubiquity code repo, it
looks as if 10.10 (Maverick) was the first release with the ubi-*
plugins. Just a quick glance through the code, I don't see much that was
different between now & then when doing an OEM install. Are you having
these issues with OEM installs in the later releases of Kubuntu? I just
did an OEM install with 11.10 (Oneiric) and 12.04 (Precise) and I am
getting ready to do a 10.04 LTS (Lucid) install to see if I can
reproduce a lot of the older issues reported here in LP. Thanks!

Title:
  oem config prepare crashes on kde

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  on every one of our kde machines regardless of hardware, we get an
  error on loading after running oem-config-prepare

  we can't click on the 'file a bug report' icon because this is prior
  to the desktop loading.  it's an oem config prepare bug.  however, the
  message says:

  Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-language.py", line 621, in on_language_selection_changed
     self.update_release_notes_label()
   File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-language.py", line 636, in update_release_notes_label
     if self.release_notes_found and self.update_installer:
  AttributeError: 'PageKde' object has no attribute 'release_notes_found'

  That's it.  I think I typed that all correctly. 
  This means we can't install kde on our prebuilt linux computers, which means we can't offer kde as an operating system.  Please let's fix this so we can get kde to more people.  Otherwise we're happy to just install gnome on our computers.

  Note that I can't attach the var/log/ etc files as the system breaks
  at this point and I can do nothing with it.  I can't get to a desktop
  when the installer crashes, so I can't run a bug report from the
  computer having the problem.
