* Make sure that the PATH environment variable is set (LP: #1854472). -- Alberto Milone <[email protected]> Fri, 29 Nov 2019 11:06:12 +0100 ** Changed in: ubuntu-drivers-common (Ubuntu Eoan) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-drivers-common in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1854472 Title: ubuntu-drivers-common fails when no PATH environment variable is passed Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Eoan: Fix Released Bug description: SRU Request: [Impact] * ubuntu-drivers-common fails when no PATH environment variable is passed: https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/52d04f39f8cbdb77d65ec57f19a5801284c1e2b0 * While the reasons why the PATH variable is empty are unknown, the ubuntu-drivers tools should be more robust and not fail, and we can expect a minimal PATH (such as /sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin) to be available on the system. [Test Case] * Install ubuntu-drivers-common from the -proposed repository. * Call the ubuntu drivers tool passing the "devices" parameter: ubuntu-drivers devices * Call the ubuntu drivers tool passing the "devices" parameter and an empty PATH variable: PATH="" /usr/bin/ubuntu-drivers devices * Neither case should fail any more. [Regression Potential] * Low. Nothing really changes in the functioning if the PATH variable is not empty.
