Actually, it is a jockey error that this build issue is not being handled gracefully, so refiling.
Basically the underlying problem is that the xserver ABI version for the -nouveau driver in lucid is too old; we have to update -nouveau before installation will work. It would be nice if jockey could communicate this type of situation somehow to the user in a more friendly way, as it is not uncommon for this to be the case during the alpha period of a new development release. ** Package changed: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (Ubuntu) => jockey (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: jockey (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: jockey (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Summary changed: - problem with instal borks installer + problem with -nouveau install borks installer -- problem with -nouveau install borks installer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/491682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
