[Bug 1487098] Re: ubiquity crashes on launch

[Brian Murray]

I'm fixing the issue with /usr/share/apport/package-
hooks/source_ubiquity.py independently and no bug report about it is
necessary.

Title:
  ubiquity crashes on launch

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  My traceback is here:
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/bin/ubiquity", line 649, in <module>
      main(oem_config)
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/bin/ubiquity", line 635, in main
      install(query=options.query)
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/bin/ubiquity", line 264, in install
      wizard = ui.Wizard(distro)
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_ui.py", line 205, in __init__
      mod.ui = mod.ui_class(mod.controller)
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-wireless.py", line 221, in __init__
      self._setup_page()
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-wireless.py", line 227, in _setup_page
      self.nmwidget = nmwidgets.NetworkManagerWidget()
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_components/nmwidgets.py", line 355, in __init__
      self.progress_indicator = ProgressIndicator()
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_components/nmwidgets.py", line 299, in __init__
      self.spinner = Spinner()
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_components/Spinner.py", line 42, in __init__
      self.setPixmap(self.pixes[0])
  IndexError: list index out of range

  Also, while reporting this, I saw:
  max at eden:~/bzr/ubiquity/autopilot$ ubuntu-bug ubiquity
  ERROR: hook /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_ubiquity.py crashed:
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/report.py", line 197, in _run_hook
      symb['add_info'](report, ui)
    File "/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_ubiquity.py", line 61, in add_info
      if 'Buffer I/O error on device' in syslog:
  TypeError: 'str' does not support the buffer interface

  (process:5214): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion
  'sys_page_size == 0' failed

  so I may need to file a separate bug about that.
