Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: system-config-kickstart
I've recently dist-upgrade from dapper to edgy and now system-config-
kickstart is not starting anymore.
$ system-config-kickstart
Could not open display because no X server is running.
Try running 'system-config-kickstart --help' for a list of options.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/system-config-kickstart/system-config-kickstart.py", line 76,
in ?
import kickstartGui
File "/usr/share/system-config-kickstart/kickstartGui.py", line 29, in ?

File "/usr/share/system-config-kickstart/basic.py", line 32, in ?
from hardwareLists import langDict
File "/usr/share/system-config-kickstart/hardwareLists.py", line 30, in ?
lines = open("/usr/share/localechooser/SUPPORTED-short", "r").readlines()
IOError: [Errno 2] Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type:
'/usr/share/localechooser/SUPPORTED-short'
Sorry output in french : it means : /usr/share/localechooser/SUPPORTED-
short is missing
So I've found a little workaround :
/usr/share/localechooser $ ls -l
total 24
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 960 2005-12-23 18:28 default-country
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4824 2006-08-03 04:44 languagelist
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4126 2005-12-23 18:28 regionmap
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 66 2006-08-22 18:53 shortlists
So /usr/share/localechooser/SUPPORTED-short seems to be shortlists in
edgy ?
A symlink /usr/share/localechooser/SUPPORTED-short to
/usr/share/localechooser/shortlists output this error :
...
File "/usr/share/system-config-kickstart/hardwareLists.py", line 45, in ?
(lang, country) = langBase.split('_')
ValueError: need more than 1 value to unpack
The format of shortlists seems to have change too and is now like this :
en
fr
So, i ended to create a SUPPORTED-short file in
/usr/share/localechooser/ filled with :
en_US
fr_FR
and now all works fine.
Does anyone have the same issue on running system-config-kickstart ?
I think the package should be rebuild to handle
/usr/share/localechooser/shortlists.
