[Bug 1599051] Re: package shim-signed 1.16~14.04.1+0.8-0ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script was killed by signal (Terminated)
This bug was fixed in the package shim-signed - 1.17 --- shim-signed (1.17) yakkety; urgency=medium * update-secureboot-policy: rework setting capabilities to stop having the backup capability while showing an error message; which won't affect the Dialog debconf frontend but otherwise made the GTK frontend confusing. * update-secureboot-policy: all debconf prompts should be at priority critical: there is no good default to pick, we must prompt the user. * debian/templates: make the password inputs be standard inputs; this is an unfortunate workaround to aptdaemon not having access to the debconf password database on desktop; since the frontend runs as an unprivileged user.

I filed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptdaemon/+bug/1599981 to track the issues we've found in aptdaemon which appear to be causing this. We'll workaround this issue by prompting for the password in clear text. I'm finishing up testing this alternative now. It appears to be the least bad option given that update-manager and aptdaemon run without root privileges, which would be necessary for access to the debconf password database. This would also explain why you can't run into this particular issue if update-manager is run with sudo. ** Changed in: shim-signed (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1599051 Title: package shim-signed 1.16~14.04.1+0.8-0ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script was killed by signal (Terminated) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shim-signed/+bug/1599051/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For reference; I could only get this prompt (see screenshot at http://imgur.com/z5Uplsz) by installing cdebconf-gtk and libgtk2-perl to properly enable the GTK frontend for debconf. I suspect there may otherwise be an issue with that frontend and dealing with db_capb backup. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1599051 Title: package shim-signed 1.16~14.04.1+0.8-0ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script was killed by signal (Terminated) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shim-signed/+bug/1599051/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Right; I would expect that the GUI dialog should allow you to go forward and re-enter password and password confirmation in this case -- I was able to confirm that hitting back otherwise fails for some reason (we actually do need db_capb backup to go back and forth outside of the password prompts). Maybe just disabling backup on error is what is necessary. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1599051 Title: package shim-signed 1.16~14.04.1+0.8-0ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script was killed by signal (Terminated) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shim-signed/+bug/1599051/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, Yes, it was during a software update with update-manager and it was a gui dialog that popped up On 05/07/2016 22:51, Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre wrote: > How did you get that prompt?

How did you get that prompt?
