errors.ubuntu.com shows a steady decline in the reports of this issue since the 10th, when the update was published:
https://errors.ubuntu.com/bucket/?id=%2Fusr%2Fsbin%2Faptd%3AUnicodeDecodeError%3Afail%3A_emit_acquire_item 790 crashes on Aug 9, down to 246 crashes on Aug 11 and 195 crashes on Aug 12. The report claims that 191 of these happened with version 0.43+bzr805-0ubuntu4; however we think this is some fuzz in the reporting that needs fixing rather than actual ongoing crashes with this version (https://bugs.launchpad.net/errors/+bug/1035557). So there is moderately strong evidence that this bug is fixed. It would still be appreciated if the users who saw this bug can confirm that the crash has gone away, and they can now use the "Update" button within update-manager after installing the newer precise-proposed version of aptdaemon. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1034806 Title: aptd crashed with UnicodeDecodeError in _emit_acquire_item(): 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xd0 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptdaemon/+bug/1034806/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
