Public bug reported: Updated 64-bit Ubuntu with bum 2.5.2-1added.
Ran the utility, got stderr output Gtk-WARNING **: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated at /usr/lib/bum/bum_app.pm line 122. Gtk-WARNING **: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated at /usr/lib/bum/bum_app.pm line 122. E: No packages found substr outside of string at /usr/lib/bum/bumlib.pm line 286. Use of uninitialized value $s_info in index at /usr/lib/bum/bumlib.pm line 287. Use of uninitialized value $s_info in index at /usr/lib/bum/bumlib.pm line 292. Use of uninitialized value $s_info in substr at /usr/lib/bum/bumlib.pm line 293. Use of uninitialized value $s_info in substr at /usr/lib/bum/bumlib.pm line 294. Ignored GTK warnings Other error results in no descriptions showing on services tab with advanced checked. ROOT CAUSE bumlib.pm gets the current module description from apt-cache show and saves it with my $start = rindex($s_info,"Description"); With internationalization, the pkg description text can have a hyphen and language code. So now $start is pointing to the wrong place. Sorry I'm not a PERL programmer so I can't supply a patch. ** Affects: bum (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1273531 Title: bum non-fatal errors and missing apt-description output To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bum/+bug/1273531/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
