I managed to start system-config-kickstart. To do this I extracted the missing file from the suggested hwdata version above.
# cd /tmp # wget ftp://mirror.ovh.net/mirrors/ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/h/hwdata/hwdata_0.234-1_all.deb # dpkg --extract hwdata_0.234-1_all.deb hwdata # cd hwdata/usr/share/hwdata # cp videodrivers /usr/share/hwdata/ # cp MonitorsDB /usr/share/hwdata/ Then system-config-kickstart started succesfully. I don't know if this solution will break something else but so far it works! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1260107 Title: trusty version experiences a runtime error due to hwdata changes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-kickstart/+bug/1260107/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
