You have been subscribed to a public bug: After performing an offline installation, I am unable to run apport via ubuntu-bug to file a bug against ubiquity until I first run an apt-get update to update the archive. When an installation is offline, it seems like this list is missing. Apport gives the following error:
dpkg-query: no packages found matching ubiquity After running the update, everything went fine, and obviously, network access is required to file a bug. However, this interaction is confusing, and if possible should be fixed. Could ubiquity generate the list during an offline install? Could apport run an update if it doesn't find the package in the current list before giving the error? This might just be a 'won't fix'.
