** Description changed: + SRU request: + + [Impact] + + * As a result of this bug, systems whose card has a bus id containing + numbers such as "08" or "09" numbers will trigger an error in printf + where it treats these string values with leading zeros as octal. This + causes the postinst script to fail. + + [Test Case] + + * Enable the precise-proposed or the saucy-proposed repository and + install nvidia-prime (0.4.2~hybrid0.0.1 in precise or 0.4.2~hybrid0.1 in + saucy). + + * If the package can be installed without errors, then the fix is + correct. + + * Alternatively, you can launch the attached script (see comment #8) as follows, you'll be able to reproduce the issue: + sh printf_test.sh reproduce + + You can then test the fix by running the attached script without any arguments: + sh printf_test.sh + + [Regression Potential] + + * The regression potential here is zero. As the attached script + demonstrates. + + + ------ Encountered this problem during install nvidia driver by using jockey, - then verified using apt-get install nvidia-prime, received following messages: + then verified using apt-get install nvidia-prime, received following messages: - $ sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime + $ sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime Reading package lists...
