I've found the problem, it was a race discovered when adding tests to
the PackageKit self test framework:

commit 2b3c13110a448ab1535716c0944e43a7e945ac98
Author: Richard Hughes 
Date:   Tue Sep 21 11:06:58 2010 +0100

Ensure we set an error if the spawned backend gets cancelled

We can't assume the spawned backend gets a chance to set an error
when we SIGQUIT it
and so set a generic transaction cancelled error code when before
we send the signal.

This means we don't trigger the obnoxious internal error when
sometimes cancelling
transactions, e.g. '...This is a serious error as the spawned
backend did not...' and
we don't scare the user when there's nothing actually wrong.

I can't reproduce this any more.  Still worth reporting?

This is bad, both from a "your system" perspective, and from a
"PackageKit reporting errors to the user" perspective. File a bug
against PackageKit-command-not-found and we can debug there.

That's packagekit-command-not-found, I think.

that's probably PK, actually. Since if the command is not it spawns that
pk command search thing.

Which bugzilla component?

2010-09-08 Thread John Poelstra
I tried to run virt-manager as a regular user on a machine that does not 
have it installed.

  $ virt-manager
Command not found.
  * Cancelling.. The transaction failed: internal-error, The backend 
exited unexpectedly. This is a serious error as the spawned backend did 
not complete the pending transaction.


Which component in bugzilla should I file a bug against to improve this 
overly cryptic technical error message--obviously virt-manager isn't it.
