[Bug 1495017] Re: ubiquity crashed with permission error on NetworkManager GetDevices() call

[Danny Werner]

A workaround similar to Doug McMahon´s  #11: installing ubuntu studio
(Ubuntu Wily Werewolf (development branch)15.10 daily build downloaded
Sept 19 2015)  from terminal (from live session) worked for me:

$ sudo -i
# sh -c 'ubiquity gtk_ui'

I have two questions.

1. I did NOT 
# systemctl start NetworkManager
# apt-get update
# apt-get upgrade
# pkill ubiquity
as advised by Marek in #17. Will this cause me trouble? I am writing this in 
the installed 15.10 Beta. Maybe NetworkManager had already started correctly in 
another code branch - I had checked the option ¨download updates while 
installing¨.

2. When I wanted to add Ubuntu Studio to the affected distributions, it
was not in the dropdown choices. Shouldn ´t it?

HTH,  thank you Mathieu for looking into this.

[Marek Doležel]

If you are unable to install image with this bug use this workaround:

1) Make sure your PC is connected to LAN or Wifi (There should be icon at top 
panel in right)
you can just type this command in another tty to enable network:
 # systemctl start NetworkManager 

2) Run these commands in tty1
# apt-get update
# apt-get upgrade
# pkill ubiquity

3) when login appears username is ubuntu without password

Hope it works!

[Bug 1495017] Re: ubiquity crashed with permission error on NetworkManager GetDevices() call

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre]

This appears to be "bad" code for calling up NetworkManager -- for some
reason dbus-python now doesn't like the fact that we call up the object
directly, not through a specified interface. Fixing this right now...
