In 24.10 I enabled proposed and installed xdiagnose with 'apt install xdiagnose/oracular-proposed'.
The installation completed normally and dpkg -l xdiagnose says ii xdiagnose 3.8.12~24.10.1 all X.org diagnosis tool ** Description changed: Impact ------ Xdiagnose fails to install and causes disruption on upgrades. This very bug has many people affected and a handful of duplicates, and there are some external reports: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1530070/problem-installing-xdiagnose https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2502192 Test case --------- Install the package from the proposed pocket. It should install and not raise a Dpkg error. 'dpkg -l xdiagnose' should say - ii xdiagnose 3.8.11ubuntu1 all X.org diagnosis tool + ii xdiagnose ${versionInProposed} all X.org diagnosis + tool Regression potential -------------------- Regression could manifest as a missing failsafe-x Systemd service. This can be ruled out with 'systemctl status failsafe-x'. Notes ----- There will be a bunch of Python "SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence" when installing. These warnings do not have to do with the fix and are already tracked elsewhere (LP:2089003). Original report --------------- System was upgraded from 24.04 to 24.10. Now, when I attempt to install available package upgrades, I get this error: $ sudo aptitude upgrade The following packages will be upgraded: xdiagnose 1 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
