This bug was fixed in the package jockey - 0.9.4-0ubuntu1 --------------- jockey (0.9.4-0ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low
* New upstream bug fix release: - oslib.py: Do not encourage to report package installation failure as SystemError, it will appear as a backend crash - jockey-gtk: Fix message_type argument to Gtk.MessageBox constructor - jockey/ui.py: For invalid combinations of LC_MESSAGES and LC_CTYPE, force stdout/stderr encoding to UTF-8 instead of C. (LP: #760883) - Fix GLib and GObject imports to be compatible with the future pygobject 3.0. (LP: #829186) - jockey/detection.py, _driverid_to_handler(): In the case that there are multiple matching custom handlers for a DriverID, also check that their "package" attribute matches. - tests/run: Also support specifying individual test method names * Add debian/testpkgs/: Scripts and equivs control files for dummy driver packages which are convenient for testing. * debian/rules: Call debian/testpkgs/clean to ensure that we don't ship build stuff there. * data/handlers/{fglrx,nvidia}.py: Prevent crash if get_alternative_by_name() returns nothing. * jockey/oslib.py, {install,remove}_package(): Capture apt's stdout/err into the log file, to get proper error messages when packages fail to install. (LP: #552300). * jockey/oslib.py, install_package(): Avoid raising a SystemError when a package fails to install in apt, as this will appear as a crash in Jockey. Just point out the error in the log file instead. (LP: #804709) * tests/oslib.py: Update test cases for above change. * tests/oslib.py: Fix apt initialization to work with current apt versions. * data/handlers/{fglrx,nvidia}.py: Also show the -updates variants of the drivers, which will be updated to newer upstream versions after the Ubuntu release.
