Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS
Release: 16.04
update-manager:
Installed: 1:16.04.16
Candidate: 1:16.04.16
I noticed lately that changelogs were not downloading for any Ubuntu packages
in update-manager.
Running from terminal I saw this error:
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/UpdateManager/Core/MyCache.py", line
245, in get_changelog_or_news
"https locations with username/password are not supported to fetch
changelogs"
There are no username/passwords in the changelog pool uri.
I believe I tracked the error to lines 242-243 in MyCache.py:
res = urlsplit(uri)
if res.scheme == "https" and res.username != "":
Documentation for 'urlsplit()' indicates res.username should return a 'None'
object, not a empty string.
I believe changing the scheme to "https" revealed this bug. The following works
properly:
if res.scheme == "https" and res.username is not None:
