Status: In Progress => Fix Released
** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided => Medium
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: update-manager
+
+ TEST CASE:
+ - regression test should be enough as its not clear what the best way to
trigger this problem is
+ the fix is pretty trivial
I've seen multiple bug reports with an attachment named
VarLogDistUpgradeTermlog.gz that is 37 bytes and contains no data. (See
bug 701317 for an example) I believe update-manager creates this log
file (term.log) before actually writing to it so we have a 0 byte file.
Then if update-manager crashes (when doing a distribution upgrade) all
the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade are passed to apport and added to bug
reports as attachments. Then when trying to work with these attachments
in Launchpad we receive an unexpected end of file.
