[Bug 93518] Re: [apport] pycentral crashed with AttributeError in install()
Sorry about the hasty post. The pyversions fix I mentions previously does not completely fix the problem. The problem is the symlink but it breaks more pieces of python-central than just pyversions. The easiest fix I've found is to restore the expected directory structure. ls -l /usr/bin/pyton take note of your default sudo rm /usr/bin/python sudo ln -s python2.4 /usr/bin/python replace python2.4 with you default. Notice, the lack of a path it is important now when you ls -l the line should end with /usr/bin/python -> python2.4 BTW: I am using edgy and the workaround did not work for me. Without the fix I am unable to uninstall any python packages and only install a few of them. -- [apport] pycentral crashed with AttributeError in install() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/93518 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
[Bug 93518] Re: [apport] pycentral crashed with AttributeError in install()
I believe the root of this problem is in /usr/bin/pyversions It will incorrectly report the python version if the /usr/bin/python is not a symlink pointing to python*. Without this value python is unable to get the default_runtime and leaves it as None. Hence the error, AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'byte_compile' A fix is posted in the comments to bug report 92287 that should fix this as well as any similar errors -- [apport] pycentral crashed with AttributeError in install() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/93518 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

The wierd thing is that I can't find any byte compiling setting bits in any of the post or pre install scripts in the offending packages. -- [apport] pycentral crashed with AttributeError in install() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/93518 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

I was affected by the bug too.

I first experienced this problem with the deskbar-applet package, but now I'm getting the same error with the gedit-plugins package. The weird part (I think?) is that gedit-plugins seems to have installed just fine - I just continue to receive this traceback whenever using apt-get: Setting up gedit-plugins (2.18.0-0ubuntu1) ...

I have the same problem, and I used the same quick-fix. Is there a permanent workaround ? -- [apport] pycentral crashed with AttributeError in install() https://launchpad.net/bugs/93518 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Install of launchpad-integration_0.1.10_all.deb update also returns errors after updating to python-central_0.5.12ubuntu3 which is listed as current. apt-get terminal dump is attached. Once again changing line 899 in /usr/bin/pycentral from: self.options.exclude, byte_compile_default=True) to self.options.exclude, byte_compile_default=False) and changing line 962 in /usr/bin/pycentral from pkg.remove(runtimes, remove_script_files=True) to pkg.remove(runtimes, remove_script_files=False) allows successful completion of this update. It's also important to note that neither apt, synaptic, or the update-manager will continue on after this error is thrown, this workaround allows the rest of the packages to continue to be installed. That terminal dump is also attached. ** Attachment added: "Terminal dump of apt-get upgrade for offending package launchpad-integration_0.0.10_all" http://librarian.launchpad.net/7038048/apt-get-error.txt -- [apport] pycentral crashed with AttributeError in install() https://launchpad.net/bugs/93518 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
