Actually on the live session the hook reads /var/log/syslog which has read access for the group adm and after installation it reads /var/log/installer/syslog which does not and the code path is different. In the former case decoding of utf8 bytes object is already done (the file is read with the function read()) but not in the latter (the file is the output of the command 'cat') -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1582950 Title: broken apport hook: TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1582950/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

you're right, it crashes on the live session but not after installation.

Its worth noting that the two bugs I looked at are from live versions of the system so perhaps the version of python being used there is different. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1582950 Title: broken apport hook: TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1582950/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Did we confirm that this fix worked? Because bug 1744821 and bug 1744809 have crashes in the ubiquity hook.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We noticed that you were installing the LTS version of Ubuntu using an older version of the installation media. The latest point release of 12.04 is 12.04.5. Please try installing from that version of the installation media and see if that resolves your issue. Thanks in advance! [This is an automated message.
