Public bug reported: software-properties-gtk crashes badly if one of the apt keys listed in apt-key list contains an accentuated char.
Here I have retraced it to having a key name containing a "ç". $ /etc/apt$ software-properties-gtk Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/software-properties-gtk", line 101, in <module> app = SoftwarePropertiesGtk(datadir=options.data_dir, options=options, file=file) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties/gtk/SoftwarePropertiesGtk.py", line 169, in __init__ self.show_keys() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties/gtk/SoftwarePropertiesGtk.py", line 846, in show_keys for key in self.apt_key.list(): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties/AptAuth.py", line 75, in list for line in p: File "/usr/lib/python3.4/codecs.py", line 313, in decode (result, consumed) = self._buffer_decode(data, self.errors, final) UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 in position 2553: invalid continuation byte ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: software-properties-gtk 0.92.37.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-39.66-generic 3.13.11.8 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-39-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.5 Architecture: i386 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sat Nov 22 15:34:45 2014 PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: software-properties UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to trusty on 2014-04-20 (215 days ago) ** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 trusty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to software-properties in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1395327 Title: software-properties-gtk crash if accentuated characters in apt-key list Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: software-properties-gtk crashes badly if one of the apt keys listed in apt-key list contains an accentuated char.
