Apologies if I go on a bit of a rant, but this bug has persisted across multiple releases for me and, judging by the number of duplicates and the number of forum postings that I see on this topic, it seems rather ridiculous that this hadn't been addressed. Is there some technical reason for this bug? Not being a programmer, I can't comment on the difficulty of solving the problem, but it sure seems like such a critical bug in what is probably some people's first introduction to Ubuntu should not be persisting for this long.
Imagine the following conversation: "Hey, do you want to try Ubuntu? I can throw it onto a USB stick and let you give it a try." "Sure." "Hmm, it looks like I'm having some trouble creating the USB stick. Hang on, let me Google around a bit to see if I can figure out why it keeps crashing." -- after 2-3 minutes of looking for a fix -- "Never mind, if Ubuntu requires this much work I don't have time." -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/915626 Title: usb-creator-gtk crashed with SIGSEGV in _dbus_watch_invalidate To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/+bug/915626/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
