This warning seems to be caused by the label control for plymouth, which uses pango to render text.
We should be able to suppress the warning simply by generating a bogus /etc/passwd file in the initrd with an entry for root, such that glib finds a valid user entry for uid 0. Patch to do this attached; it's currently building in my PPA (https://launchpad.net/~broder/+archive/ubuntu-tests), and should be tested to confirm it eliminates the problem. ** Patch added: "plymouth_0.8.2-2ubuntu6.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/649917/+attachment/1715242/+files/plymouth_0.8.2-2ubuntu6.debdiff -- GLIb-WARNING **: getpwid_r(): failed due to unknown user id https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/649917 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
