Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: usb-creator
I fought with usb-creator for a few hours before I found that parted
wasn't installed. I initially installed ubuntu 9.04 base, then
immediately updated to 10.4 (long story, don't ask why) and added the
ubuntu-netbook metapackage. The usb-creator-gtk pakage was installed as
part of that process, but parted was not. I also attempted a "sudo apt-
get install --reinstall usb-creator", which also didn't intall parted.
Ergo, there's a dependency problem somewhere.
This was only a problem on my netbook. My workstations running ubuntu
and ubuntu desktop don't seem to have this issue, as they work fine.
Maybe something else in the desktop already brings parted in, I haven't
checked.
Looking at the dependencies, none of the usb-creator* packages appear to
actually depend on parted. I'd be inclined to say that usb-creator-
common is probably the real package which should depend on parted, but
in any case, if the thing is going to directly call parted, that should
be a dependency. :)
