* Fix "Create synthetic ICC Profile" feature (LP: #2115430) -- Erich Eickmeyer <[email protected]> Fri, 27 Jun 2025 09:34:29 -0700 ** Changed in: displaycal-py3 (Ubuntu Noble) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to displaycal-py3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2115430 Title: [SRU] "Create synthetic ICC profile" feature fails Status in displaycal-py3 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in displaycal-py3 source package in Noble: Fix Released Status in displaycal-py3 source package in Oracular: Won't Fix Status in displaycal-py3 source package in Plucky: Fix Released Status in displaycal-py3 source package in Questing: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] Users are unable to use the "Create synthetic ICC profile" feature of DisplayCAL as it crashes if it doesn't find a config file in the user's home folder as opposed to making one. [Test Case] 1. Ensure that the ~/.config/DisplayCAL/DisplayCAL-synthprofile.ini file doesn't exist. 2. Launch DisplayCAL. 3. Select the "Create synthetic ICC profile" option in the Tools > Advanced menu. Expected: No crash Actual: Crash (see original bug report below) [What could go wrong] While the patch in question is tested upstream and known to work in later versions, it's completely possible that the patch introduces new bugs or just doesn't work at all. [Other information] The bug in question does not exist in the version already in questing. Noble and Plucky need this, and it's too close to Oracular's EOL to justify this fix. [Original Bug Report] ## Steps to reproduce 1. Ensure that the ~/.config/DisplayCAL/DisplayCAL-synthprofile.ini file doesn't exist. 2. Launch DisplayCAL. 3. Select the "Create synthetic ICC profile" option in the Tools > Advanced menu. ## Current behavior Program errors with the following traceback: ```text No section: 'Default' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/DisplayCAL/display_cal.py", line 12273, in synthicc_create_handler self.init_synthiccframe() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/DisplayCAL/display_cal.py", line 2393, in init_synthiccframe config.initcfg("synthprofile", SynthICCFrame.cfg) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/DisplayCAL/config.py", line 1840, in initcfg setcfg("calibration.file", defaults["calibration.file"], cfg=cfg) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/DisplayCAL/config.py", line 2093, in setcfg cfg.set(configparser.DEFAULTSECT, name, value) File "/usr/lib/python3.12/configparser.py", line 880, in set raise NoSectionError(section) from None configparser.NoSectionError: No section: 'Default' ``` ## Known workaround Manually create the ~/.config/DisplayCAL/DisplayCAL-synthprofile.ini file, with the following content: ```ini [Default] ``` ## Additional information This bug has been fixed upstream by the following commit: https://github.com/eoyilmaz/displaycal-py3/commit/ccbcf67f ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 24.04 Package: displaycal 3.9.11-2ubuntu0.24.04.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 6.11.0-26.26~24.04.1-generic 6.11.11 Uname: Linux 6.11.0-26-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: zfs ApportVersion: 2.28.1-0ubuntu3.7 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CurrentDesktop: KDE Date: Thu Jun 26 23:11:06 2025 InstallationDate: Installed on 2025-02-04 (142 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS "Noble Numbat" - Release amd64 (20240827.1) SourcePackage: displaycal-py3 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/displaycal-py3/+bug/2115430/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
