ubiquity (1.1.0) edgy; urgency=low * Use try/finally in install.py to ensure that PROGRESS STOP is always called; ignore errors from PROGRESS STOP (e.g. because debconf has gone away due to a previous error). * Support /UNIONFS (Knoppix) as well as /rofs as the read-only filesystem source. * Don't require entering a full name (see http://www.hermann-uwe.de/blog/os-install-experiences-part-4-ubuntu). * GTK frontend: - Return None from location_from_point if point is None (thanks to Chris Moore for the idea; closes: Malone #48885). * KDE frontend: - Add slightly more paranoia in case getNearestCity returns None. * Don't show hw-detect/modprobe_error, and make it non-fatal (closes: Malone #48524). * Make it clear in the crash dialog that you should file a new bug, not attach your details to an existing bug. * Add passwd and adduser dependencies from user-setup. * Take a copy of the supplied choice map in set_keyboard_choices. * Save tracebacks from install.py and slurp them back into the traceback displayed if install.py exits non-zero. * Convert to new Python policy (python-central). Install Python modules/extensions to /usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity rather than into the public module path. * Warn in the partitioner if you try to use XFS for /boot (closes: Malone #47848). * Warn in the partitioner if system filesystems are not reformatted (closes: Malone #47046). * Remove /usr/bin/espresso compatibility symlink. * Use os._exit() rather than sys.exit() in the apt install progress child process after forking, fixing a lot of strange "PROGRESS STOP" messages in /var/log/installer/syslog and bizarre debconf exceptions. See also Malone #53298. * Use exceptions to communicate all failures in install.py, so that we get more useful tracebacks.
