So the issue is that /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_ubiquity.py tries attaching a variety of files which are not readable as simple- user. Most other packages with the same problem call apport's root_command_output() to gain relevant permissions.
It's easy enough to convert the hook, but I'd like to check whether any of the logs could have sensitive data. It seems quite wide-spread practice to include a lot of potentially private data in reports by default, but I guess it's ok since the user gets the chance to review what apport will send; the difference here is that the installer log could have things like user passwords or ecryptfs keys in it. If there is such data, perhaps we should set the Private bit on the report so that someone has to review the report before opening it up. -- [Maverick] ubuntu-bug fails when reporting a bug about ubiquity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/653046 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
