So I've uploaded the fix to cosmic and bionic UNAPPROVED; you can get it
from there if you want to get it into a PPA sooner for testing?

** Description changed:

- We are working on the UC18 release right now. The test images can be
- found at
- http://people.canonical.com/~mvo/core18/core18-dragonboard-18-beta20181009.img
- or build using ubuntu-image.
+ [impact]
+ We are working on the UC18 release right now. The test images can be found at 
http://people.canonical.com/~mvo/core18/core18-dragonboard-18-beta20181009.img 
or build using ubuntu-image.
  
  We ran into the issue that console-conf just crashes. We did some face-
  to-face debugging in brussels but not much progress there. This bug is
  mostly so that we can track the issue as this is a release blocker.
+ 
+ [test case]
+ As above, build an UC18 image, install it on a dragonboard and see if 
console-conf crashes at start up.
+ 
+ A more targeted test:
+ 
+ 1. get yourself an arm64 environment which has a wlan device
+ 2. make sure that device is down (ip link set dev $wlan down)
+ 3. install probert
+ 4. run the "probert" command
+ 
+ if it doesn't segfault, we're good (if it doesn't segfault it will crash
+ with an attributeerror which is a bug but not one that console-conf will
+ run into)
+ 
+ [regression potential]
+ It's a one line patch that can be observed to be correct. Barring things like 
a toolchain update causing probert to be miscompiled, there is no potential for 
regression.
