[ Michael Vogt ] * lp:~mvo/software-center/lp1044141: - fix unicode error crash on a transaction error (LP: #1044141) * lp:~mvo/software-center/fix-size-calc-race: - fix crash due to a race in the size calculation code in the details view (LP: #1041004) * lp:~mvo/software-center/fix-crash-1048886: - No longer call GLib.init_threads() as this will cause LP: #1048886 later. Many thanks to Albert Astals Cid * lp:~mvo/software-center/dbus-idle-timeout: - stop the dbus data provider after 5min of inactivity (LP: #1058567) * lp:~mvo/software-center/lp1051829: - Do not report deb packages with lintian errors via the recoverable errors mechanism. This removes 97 out of 104 instances of my sample of the recoverable error report for LP: #1051829. Other types of failures will still be reported as recoverable failures though (as we do want to know about them). [ Gary Lakser ] * lp:~gary-lasker/software-center/lp1041004: - ensure that app_details is valid before using it (LP: #1041004) * lp:~gary-lasker/software-center/fix-crash-lp1021308: - send synthetic "style-updated" signals to ensure that the signal handlers are called on themes that do not send this signal (like oxygen-gtk3). This fixes a crash and broken drawing LP: #1021308 [ Nicolas Delvaux ] * lp:~malizor/software-center/fix-lp1050036: - fix crash in get_label() (LP: #1050036) and drop the i18n for the yes/no symbols that were not translated in any language (as a result test_regression_lp1047281.py can also be dropped) -- Michael Vogt <michael.v...@ubuntu.com> Fri, 05 Oct 2012 10:58:20 +0200 ** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to software-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1050036 Title: software-center crashed with UnicodeDecodeError in get_label(): 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128) Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: software-center crashed with UnicodeDecodeError in get_label(): 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128 ProblemType: Crash DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: software-center 5.3.12 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-14.16-generic 3.5.3 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-14-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.5.1-0ubuntu7 Architecture: amd64 CrashCounter: 1 Date: Wed Sep 12 22:14:35 2012 ExecutablePath: /usr/share/software-center/software-center InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Alpha amd64 (20120909) InterpreterPath: /usr/bin/python2.7 PackageArchitecture: all ProcCmdline: /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/software-center ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=es_ES.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash PythonArgs: ['/usr/bin/software-center'] SourcePackage: software-center Title: software-center crashed with UnicodeDecodeError in get_label(): 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128) UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/1050036/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
