I hope to get back to this soon, but the SRU team rejected the change because sometimes you'd have to enter just one character and sometimes you'd have to enter a character and a space e.g. '3 ' if there were more than 9 choices. I've still no idea why the initial decision was made to accept only one character. -- Brian Murray -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1722564 Title: apport question will not accept multi-character responses Status in Apport: Confirmed Status in apport package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in apport source package in Artful: In Progress Bug description: the newly added cloud-init apport support shows a list of cloud providers and asks the user to select one.
