Public bug reported: When I start the Software Center it immediately gives me a fatal error on my fresh 15.10 installation in Esperanto.
I got the following traceback when I tried to start the software-center from the terminal: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12972133/ I looked at the traceback and I noticed the error occurred in the file region.py. In the method _get_region_dumb we try to split the variable loc with the delimeter "_", but the input string does not contain an underscore in the first place. The variable loc only contains "eo" at this point, since Esperanto is not connected to a certain country there is no country code. I managed to fix the method _get_region_dumb by adding a try/except statement, but I am not able to do a pull request myself as I am not really an expert in Bazaar and branches. Could somebody update the method _get_region_dumb in region.py and replace it with the following or an other similar method: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12972109/ I only added the last try/except statement. robin@robin-pc:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 15.10 Release: 15.10 robin@robin-pc:~$ apt-cache policy software-center software-center: Instalita: 13.10-0ubuntu12 Kandidato: 13.10-0ubuntu12 Version table: *** 13.10-0ubuntu12 0 500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: software-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1510237 Title: Software Center doesn't start on systems in Esperanto To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/1510237/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
