** Description changed: [Impact] update-manager is crashing frequently causing a bad user experience. [Test Case] The crash happens when an AssertionError is raised in MyCache but I haven't figure out how to recreate that. So here's a way to force an assertion error. 1) edit the MyCache class's __init__ function (found in UpdateManager/Core/MyCache.py) to 'raise AssertionError' which will simulate having a dirty journal or broken packages 2) run update-manager and observe the Traceback in comment #1 - Additionally, we can use the bucket in the Error Tracker to confirm that - there are no crashes with the version of the package from -proposed. + With the version of update-manager from -proposed you'll no longer + receive a Traceback you'll instead see a "Not all updates can be + installed" dialog. Additionally, after clicking continue in that dialog + you'll be presented with another dialog that says "Software index is + broken". + + We can also use the bucket in the Error Tracker to confirm that there + are no crashes with the version of the package from -proposed. [Regression Potential] Original Description -------------------- The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem regarding update-manager. This problem was most recently seen with package version 1:19.04.5, the problem page at https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/1bcfccc6ceab83c6e401f14c655c1cd5045be5d4 contains more details, including versions of packages affected, stacktrace or traceback, and individual crash reports. If you do not have access to the Ubuntu Error Tracker and are a software developer, you can request it at http://forms.canonical.com/reports/.
