[Bug 617885] Re: gparted crash at start: glibmm-ERROR **
Thank you Brian, Michael - Great to hear that PowerPC will be included. However a backport from Natty would be preferable because one other critical fix is also included from upstream, along with other bug fixes (quoted below from their release notes). Is there a procedure for an end-user to request a backport? Thanks again, jayseye >From gparted-0.7.0-notes.txt: > http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/gparted/gparted-0.7.0/gparted-0.7.0-notes.txt/download > GPARTED 0.7.0 RELEASE NOTES This release of GParted adds initial support for the btrfs file system, and fixes two critical bugs.

[Bug 617885] Re: gparted crash at start: glibmm-ERROR **
Is this an x86-only build? It has yet to show up in Synaptic under PowerPC, though many other packages *are* available from maverick-proposed. The .deb mentioned above in comments #57 and #59 is still available, and still dated November 4. It's been made very clear that PowerPC is officially unsupported; however with that .deb automatically built and working for Natty, wouldn't it take extra effort to exclude that build from maverick-proposed? Or does someone from the PowerPC team need to do something to accept it into Ports? It would really help to understand the process: even just a link to a specific doc would do.

[Bug 617885] Re: gparted crash at start: glibmm-ERROR **
Michael, thanks for the explanation. Re Comment #59 I am using that .deb under Maverick, based on your info in Comment #53 stating that Natty was equivalent to Maverick at that time. The .deb installed and worked flawlessly. Perhaps this info may also be useful to you, Seth. In any case, thanks again for the patch. WRT GParted Live CD: the .zip version works fine when booted from a USB stick. However the .ISO version reports some errors while booting from CD, on several different PCs. The MD5 matches and the CD is error-free (zero c2 errors), so I felt more confident using the USB version. Planning to report this to the GParted project when I can assemble a complete bug report. Just mentioning it here re Comment #62.

Yes I can also confirm that the .deb which I mentioned above fixes the problem on PowerPC. Here's a direct link: > https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/0.7.0-1/+build/2030806/+files/gparted_0.7.0-1_powerpc.deb > It would be really great to see this version actually released and showing up in Synaptic. I'd be willing to contribute some time / effort if there's anything I could do to expedite that. Any useful advice on how to proceed?

[Bug 617885] Re: gparted crash at start: glibmm-ERROR **
Have yet to find a binary package available in the repositories, at least for PowerPC. However, .deb builds may be downloaded through the source package page, under the word Builds: > https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/0.7.0-1 While these probably still need testing, they at least save the work of building from source.

How long does it typically take for a new upstream version to be packaged for Ubuntu? Having the same problem on PowerPC under Maverick, and may build from source if there will be more than a few days of lag time. Thanks to all who have helped trace and fix this issue!

[Bug 586385] Re: linux-ports-meta not kept up to date
Security Issue: Ubuntu update manager now reports that "linux-image-2.6.32-24-powerpc 2.6.32-24.41" is available as a security update; but that package's Description warns: "You likely do not want to install this package directly. Instead, install the linux-powerpc meta-package, which will ensure that upgrades work correctly, and that supporting packages are also installed." However, the linux-powerpc package is stuck at an earlier version, so the kernel update cannot be applied through that meta-package. The resulting confusion may cause users to ignore updates. If we keep the linux-ports-meta package up-to-date, users will be encouraged to apply the update when notified.

[Bug 176149] Manual Workaround Re: GnomeBaker error for Import Session
One of the Gnomebaker developers (Pygi) has replied to my posting #15 on this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=159835 and we have been following up on this. In particular, I reported a workaround of manually editing a field to enter a mount point which the program fails to detect.

Brasero was able to import the session, and to burn a subsequent session. This is another difference from Bug #71684 where a comment claimed that it was a backend problem.

[Bug 176149] GnomeBaker error for Import Session
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnomebaker GnomeBaker 0.6.2 under Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) fails to import a session which it has previously created. A dialog box reports "Error getting information / unknown error". This is a different symptom than reported for Bug #71684. The error dialog occurs regardless of whether the CD is mounted; in fact, GnomeBaker will successfully unmount the CD when trying to import the session. However, the error occurs even if the CD is umounted manually before starting up GnomeBaker. This appears to be a new error in Gutsy, as the function used to work, per message #6 in a thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=159835 K3b is able to import the first session from the same CD, so this appears to be a GnomeBaker import bug. Posts on the GnomeBaker forums appear to go unanswered for years, so am reporting here. Steps to reproduce: * Insert an appendable CD-R containing one session previously created using GnomeBaker * Start via Applications > Sound & Video > CD/DVD Writer GnomeBaker * File > New Project > Data CD (or click Data CD button) * Project > Import Session Expected Behavior: Previously recorded session should be imported Actual Behavior: Error dialog as detailed above ** Affects: gnomebaker (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- GnomeBaker error for Import Session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/176149 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
